  • What if you could give someone the power to change a life?
On May 25, our runners will take part in Race for Gift in support of 2nd Chance.
They’re not professional athletes.
They are doctors, students, parents, colleagues, and friends — all united by a single purpose:
💙 To run for those who can’t.

👉 Anne, Marianne, Karine, Simon, Jean-Claude, Lionel, Sabrina, Pierre, Pascal, Fabienne, Matteo, Sigiriya, Nicolas, Benjamin, Sébastien, Guillaume, Mathieu, Marc, Shireen, Karen, Viktoriia, Hicham, Adèle, Clarisse, Ester, Delphine, Anastassia, Roxane, Aksel, Isabelle, Jean‑Daniel, Sylvie, Theodore, Juliette-Colombe, Camille, Octave, Emmanuelle, Edgar, Karin, Ugo, Esther, Sophie, Valérie, Niall, Moira...

Each of them must raise CHF 400 to take part.
This is not just a race.
It’s a mission: to offer life-changing reconstructive surgery to patients in need and to train local surgeons who will carry that impact forward.

🙏 We need your help to get each runner to the starting line.
Even a few francs make a difference.
