Run for Ukraine: 3.4 km for 34 Years of Independence


Details
#### Join us in Brussels on August 24, 2025 for a symbolic 3,4km run celebrating Ukraine’s Independence Day — and help raise €3,400 to fund robotic rescue systems that save wounded soldiers’ lives on the frontlines.
*There is no limit in registrations - scroll down to see how to join :)
### Why participate & donate?
- The robotic systems we’re funding go where people can’t — evacuating injured soldiers from the most dangerous zones and giving them a chance to live.
- 100% of donations go directly to the cause, coordinated by Hurkit, a Kyiv-based NGO working closely with frontline brigades.
- Run in solidarity and celebrate together: join the lottery with prizes from Hurkit and Ukrainian businesses in Brussels, and enjoy traditional food, music, workshops, and more after the run
