Фонд «Точка опоры»

Особое внимание фонд уделяет тем видам спорта, которые еще не вошли в государственный реестр и поэтому не имеют госфинансирования. За 13 лет работы Фонд поддержал свыше 30 видов спорта.
Сделайте пожертвование при регистрации на забег или на сайте фонда «Точка опоры». Не бывает маленьких пожертвований — значима любая помощь.

Помочь фонду можно разными способами. Самый простой и понятный — отправить пожертвование в его адрес в момент регистрации на один из наших забегов в сезоне 2024. Ещё один вариант подойдёт к тем, кто хочет занять более активную позицию. Присоединяйтесь к программе фонда и становитесь бегунами во благо.
