The DONAT Running Team at the 2026 UNICEF Charity Run
On Wednesday, 20 May 2026, the time had finally come again: in perfect running weather, Ingolstadt’s Klenzepark was transformed into an arena of solidarity. More than 800 runners came together to run lap after lap for a better future for children in war-torn and crisis-hit regions.
We at DONAT IT were, of course, back in action with a highly motivated team. Our colleagues swapped their keyboards for running shoes to give it their all on the approximately 750-metre course. Their efforts paid off: our team managed to complete an impressive total of 109 laps, raising €1,500 in the process.
This sum goes directly towards UNICEF’s global education projects. For disadvantaged girls and boys in particular, access to education is often their only chance of leading a self-determined life. The funds raised are used to equip schools, provide learning materials such as exercise books and pens, and even set up school tents in crisis-hit areas. Beyond basic education, the projects impart important knowledge about social rights and health education – issues that are crucial to the development of entire regions.
We are proud that the UNICEF Charity Run has become an integral part of our corporate culture. Every year, it is impressive to see how sporting ambition and social commitment go hand in hand. A heartfelt thank you goes to our runners for their tireless efforts, as well as to all the organisers who make this event possible in the heart of Ingolstadt. We are already looking forward to taking part together again next year!
