Thorbecke / KWF run

The Thorbecke KWF Run in Zwolle is an annual running event where students, teachers, parents and local residents come together to raise money for cancer research. The event symbolizes cooperation, energy and involvement within the school community. The run is a festive and meaningful activity that helps support the Dutch Cancer Society (KWF Kankerbestrijding).

The run is part of a broader KWF initiative in which schools and associations take action against cancer. There is a strong emphasis on creating a personal fundraising page to collect donations and involve the community. The run symbolizes a shared commitment to cancer research and building engagement within the school. The event serves as both a running celebration and a school fundraiser, with the aim of raising money for cancer research. The proceeds increase each year, with recent totals exceeding 17,500 euros.
