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!
