ABOUT:
A Fun Run for Charity... in Your Skivvies!
Atlanta Santa Speedo Run presented by Sweet Peach Wax & Sugaring Studio, is a 1-mile fun run through Atlanta in December where runners strip down to their Speedos (or costume of choice) in the name of charity. Sound like a jolly good time? It is! Through individual and team fundraising efforts, this more-nice-than-naughty fundraising event benefits nonprofit organization Bert’s Big Adventure. We hope to see you on December 11th in Politan Row at Colony Square. Festivities start at noon, and the run will begin at 2 p.m.!
The Cause:
Established in 2002 by Bert Weiss, host of nationally syndicated morning radio show The Bert Show, Bert’s Big Adventure is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides a magical, all-expenses-paid, 5-day journey to Walt Disney World® for children with chronic and terminal illnesses and their families.
Following the annual trip, Bert’s Big Adventure provides year-round support through initiatives such as the Reunion Adventures, the Fairy Godparent volunteer program and additional charitable services. The trip and programs create a community of families that establish lasting friendships with others facing similar challenges.
