What is Run Santa Run!?
Our first Run Santa Run! was held in 2010, with over 250 participants. This year we are expecting 300 participants who want to have fun in the spirit of Christmas and assist families to access quality educational services. Yes, we will all have the chance to dress up in Santa hats and walk or run… kinda silly, but why not!
All funds raised through Run Santa Run! 2025 are earmarked for the Third Schools Bursary Program for Third Academy, LYNX, and ursa students. We believe our programs should be accessible to all that would benefit from them, irrespective of a family’s financial circumstances.
Third Academy International Ltd. – also known as Third Schools – www.thirdschools.ca – is a registered charity #88694 2085 RR0001. At Third Schools, ‘It’s education, your child’s way’.
