Claudio Camilleri and Daniel Abela, who have faced each other on the football pitch back in their childhood, will be running up to 500 laps around the Marsa track to fund psychological care for children.
Under the care of Fondazzjoni Sebħ, an NGO that engages 80 workers to provide round-the-clock support for 41 children and mothers escaping violence with their kids, the pair will be undertaking the challenge between Sunday 30th April and Monday 1st May.
Hospitality consultant Claudio Camilleri will be attempting 200km on a 400m track in 35 hours at the age of 46. For his part, Daniel Abela will test how far he can go to raise enough money for The Children in Need Foundation and thus fund regular therapy sessions for the kids at the foundation’s home.
The event is called 1Run1Childhood, and also aims to urge companies and people to contribute to the cause and see the project survive for up to the next three years.
If you wish to support their cause, you can do so by visiting the pages of 1RUN or Abela and Camilleri themselves. Way to go lads!
