Start your merry mission!
Santa Fun Run is all about making spirits bright and we need your help to spread the message far and wide, raising awareness and funds for Vision Australia’s Life Ready program. This important initiative gives kids who are blind or have low vision the skills and confidence they need to navigate a life of independence and meaningful inclusion.
To get you started, we’ve put together tips, images and text to help you find Santa Fun Run sponsors and invite friends or coworkers to join your journey.
