Registration for the eight-day No Finish Line event has officially begun. Registration for the eight days began in July and pre-registration for teams and individuals will begin soon, in September.
Last year, the inclusive event celebrated its 25th anniversary and raised a record-breaking 319,005 euros for projects supported by Children & Future.
Placed under the High Patronage of Prince Albert II, the “race” is open to all. The Sovereign himself participated in last year’s event. Thanks to registrations, donors and sponsors, for every kilometre, Children & Future donates €1 to support projects that benefit disadvantaged or sick children. Participants can commit to donating €1 for every kilometre.
The charity event was created in 1999 in Monaco and has since gone international. The event now also takes place in Santa Cruz, Athens, Brussels, Paris, Nice and other places across the globe. Monaco’s 2025 edition will be taking place from Saturday, November 15 to Sunday, November 23.
Since its creation, €5.4 million has been raised by about 190,000 people who have collectively travelled 5.1 million kilometres! After the last record-breaking edition, 26 initiatives have received support from Children & Future.
Real change
In the Principality, Children & Future funded the acquisition of a vein detector and a double crib for the paediatrics department of the CHPG. The Monaco Humanitarian Collective received €75,000 to fund paediatric heart surgeries. The Save Us association received €13,584 to continue its fight against genetic diseases, particularly cystic fibrosis and €9,212 was donated to Coeurs Vaillants et Âmes Vaillantes so that children from low-income families can participate in activities during summer camps.
Last year’s results…
The 2024 No Finish Line ended in the presence of members of the government, the National Council and the Monaco City Hall. Mixed weather disrupted the anniversary edition and the safety of the circuit, leading to the closure of the circuit for several hours. The weather didn’t dampen the participants’ enthusiasm. The goal of 12,000 registered participants was exceeded after 13,947 registered participants raised an unprecedented amount for charity.
