Fundraise
The 7Rocky River Run raises valuable funds in support of local charities.
Since 2008, our incredible 7Rocky River Runners have collectively raised over $100,000 for charities creating local impact in the Central Queensland region.
We encourage our 7Rocky River Run participants to make their run count by fundraising further for our chosen charity or a cause close to their own heart.
Regardless of whether you raise $5 or $5,000, every single dollar will help these worthy charities continue their incredible work within our community.
Fundraise FAQ
Why fundraise with a run?
Completing a running event is a rewarding and powerful way to make an impact and raise valuable funds for charity as it combines personal achievement with the motivation of knowing your running efforts are all for a good cause.
By combining your love for running with the knowledge that you’re making a positive impact in the lives of young people struggling with mental health issues, you're not only racing to the finish line but also racing toward positive change, making your race an even more motivating and fulfilling experience.
