The Fred Hollows Foundation invites your business to be a Community Event Partner in 2021.   

Ranging from providing products as prizes, to being the Naming Rights partner, your business has the opportunity to reach new audiences and demonstrate your commitment to the community.  

The Fred Hollows Foundation is one of Australia’s most trusted and recognised organisations, with a long history of successful community events. We are proud to announce we have two Foundation-run events this year: 
 

1. Fred’s Big Run  

In August 2021, we are hosting our second Fred’s Big Run. A virtual fundraising event where participants choose to walk or run 25km, 50km or 100km for the month of August and fundraise to support The Foundation’s sight restoring work.  

Fred’s Big Run was a huge success in 2020, raising more than $1.8 million for The Foundation. We had over 7,300 people take part in the challenge and step up for Fred.  

This year we have even bigger plans to engage the public, and with the help of your business, we can reach more people and demonstrate our shared commitment to ending avoidable blindness. 
 

2. Sydney Harbour Hike  

The Fred Hollows Foundation is introducing a new event in October 2021, Sydney Harbour Hike. Participants will walk 34km along Sydney’s stunning coastline and fundraise to support The Foundation.  

In partnership with the Bondi to Manly Walk Supporters, we are seeking partners to collaborate with us in this new and iconic event for Sydney.
