Participate in the Erasmus Charity Run (part of the NN Marathon Rotterdam) on Sunday 12th of April 2026, and raise money for scholarship students, together with students, colleagues, alumni, and other friends of the university.
Great news: this year, our run is -once again- officially part of the Rotterdam Marathon #demooiste! Want to finish your run on the Coolsingel with a cheering crowd? Register for the Erasmus Charity Run, ¼ Marathon Rotterdam (10.55 km). Afterwards, you can raise a glass with the other participants and meet scholarship students. Experience a day you'll never forget!

Running for scholarship students
Just like last year, you'll be running for a good cause: we're raising money for scholarship students. This gives talented students without sufficient financial resources the opportunity to study at Erasmus University Rotterdam and realise their dreams.
Do you want to combine working out with social impact? Then the Erasmus Charity Run 2026 is perfect for you.
Donate to scholarship students
Don't want to participate but still want to make a difference in society? You can also donate directly to the Erasmus Charity Run charity. A scholarship costs €17,500 per year. Every contribution, large or small, brings us closer to finding a new place for a talented student.
Donating is easy via the Erasmus Charity Run website. You can choose:
- a team donation;
- a donation to an individual participant;
- a general donation.
Help make education accessible and make dreams come true!
