Runners raise R12,000 for Faron-Mae fund
Run Walk For Life Toti members handed over the funds they raised through various running events to Paula and Faron-Mae Fisher on Monday, 7 October.
The athletes, led by Lizette Botha, raised R12,000 through sponsorships and pledges for the Mandela Mararthon, Longest Day and 100 Miler events that took place over the last two months.
“I was very disappointed by the amount raised,” said Lizette, who completed the 100 Miler in an incredible time of 23 hours, 16 minutes and 44 seconds to claim second.
“We could have raised more funds for this little girl, who is never going to be cured. This is a one-in-a-million case and the fundraiser is ongoing.”
