BEYOND BARRIERS Virtual Run

Run | Empower | Win

RUN TO EMPOWER. RUN TO WIN.

The 2023 Beyond Barriers Virtual Run was run from 2 to 22 December with 24 teams taking on the challenge of completing 800km and helping us empower more young people in 2024 and beyond!  A resounding success, over 160 individual runners committed to the three week challenge and helped raise significant funds to ensure that we can increase our intake of schools in 2024. 

To date we have graduated over 320 students through our program, including 64 indigenous students, 41 students from refugee backgrounds, and 12 who have been in out-of-home care, as well as students impacted by numerous other factors such as exposure to discrimination and long-term parental unemployment. With your help, through your participation in this major fundraiser in 2024, we will be able to onboard the schools on our waitlist who will otherwise not have the opportunity. Lace up to help make it happen and keep an eye out for updates on 2024 Beyond Barriers Virtual Run!
