Sunday 25th of May 2025
We laced up our shoes for a cause close to our hearts: the Henri Simonart Fund. Founded 15 years ago by our father and uncle, it supports women and children in the Democratic Republic of Congo, including the 42 children of Katana Orphanage living in heartbreaking poverty. Every day, these kids dream of food, clothes, education, and care. The foundation brings them hope – but it relies entirely on donations.
On May 25th, we crossed the finish line of the iconic 20km of Brussels, united in this mission. But we didn’t do it alone... we did it thanks to the 54 incredible runners and walkers, the support of our amazing organization, our sponsors and everyone who stood behind us on this journey. Thank you to everyone who made this day possible.
By running together, we weren’t just crossing a finish line... we were stepping towards hope, dignity, and opportunity. With your help, we can ensure that the Henri Simonart Fund continues its remarkable work for years to come.
Let’s keep the momentum going!
Invite your family and friends to support us.
Together, we’ve run for change – and we can keep making a difference.
