About

Distance For Difference (D4D), is a registered non-profit organisation which, since 2005, made a significant impact in the wellbeing of children in South Africa. D4D use sport to generate funds for distribution to various children's charities. This is done through individual athletes who find sponsors for every km they run, cycle or swim during a year, while training or participating in specific events, e.g. the Comrades Marathon, the Absa Cape Epic, IRONMAN, The Cape Town Cycle Tour, etc. Secondly, D4D hosts two fundraising events – The GRATITUDE Run (an annual event) and THE500 24hr-Cycling-and-Spinning-Challenge, which is held every second year. We also launched the Swim 4 HOPE and HIKE with Purpose fundraising brands in 2023 and 2025 respectively. Over the past twenty-one years, D4D raised and distributed more than R14 million. Some of our beneficiaries include Patch Helderberg, Kingdom Kids, Little Angels, Sylvia's House, Tzadokah Foster Home, Esther van Zyl, Gabriella Centre, Heartlands Baby Sanctuary, Kin Culture, just to name a few.
