Celebrate Heritage Day (and Braai Day) with Purpose!

This Heritage Day — Wednesday, 24 September 2025 — South Africans will be firing up the braais to celebrate their heritage, and we’re inviting you to kick off the celebrations with a heart-pumping run or walk for a great cause…The GRATITUDE Run 2025! Join Distance For Difference (D4D) at the breathtaking Dornier Wines for a very special edition of The GRATITUDE Run 2025, as we not only honour our heritage but also mark D4D’s 20th year of making a difference!

Whether you’re a serious runner or a casual walker, this event is all about gratitude, giving back and good vibes. All proceeds (after direct expenses) will go directly to D4D’s mission of supporting children’s charities such as Tzadokah Foster Home, Sylvia’s House, Kingdom Kids, Esther van Zyl Foster Care, Joya Home and many more.

So lace up your running shoes and bring your braai spirit - and let’s make The GRATITUDE Run 2025 one to remember!
