THE MAD

ROAD MAP

What can a group of ordinary South African’s with the drive to make a difference in our country do?

Our belief is that in making a small difference, we can create significant change. We want to use our physical resources to attain better resources for deserving and promising scholars. MAD2Adventures is a registered NPO and Level 1 B-BBEE contributor.

WHAT WE DO

We run our hearts out!

MAD2Run is an annual fundraising event – the journey is an 8-day long, 24hr, relay-style run from Johannesburg to Cape Town (1520KM). There are 44 runners, who are embracing this upcoming adventure. MAD2Run 2021 will be our 8th consecutive event, and will be taking place from the 8th – 15th October 2021.

As a relay run, each team member is committed to running a minimum of 20KMs per day!

WHY WE DO IT

To put others first

The Make A Difference Leadership Foundation (MAD) is a holistic full investment scholarship programme. They aim to identify academically talented scholars with leadership potential, who do not have the necessary financial resources, and offer them support in the areas of education, leadership and lifeskills development. MAD’s philosophy is “focused on the development of a select cadre of high performance individuals who, in themselves, are role models who inspire others and who will support each other in the future by giving back to others.

MAD was founded by Francois Pienaar in 2003 and are currently supporting 311 scholars on their program, from all over SA. MAD is the sole beneficiary of the MAD2Adventures NPO.

We are part of a team of 36 MADsters who will be running a 24hr relay run from Johannesburg to Cape Town, 1520kms, in 1 week with the purpose of raising funds for underprivileged scholars. All funds raised go towards the education and leadership development of SA’s future leaders.

MAD2Run is a vessel for doing good - It gives opportunity to people to do good for others. So often we find that so many people want to give back but they just don't know how to. The MAD Leadership Foundation has given myself and so many before me, the opportunity to get involved with an incredible foundation that is doing so much good here in South Africa. I found my passion for giving back many years ago and through learning from the various events and charities that I participated in, I realised that education is the only gift that cannot be taken away from you. It will stay and grow with you for all your life. In the same way, my yearning for giving back has grown to where I find myself now, participating in this incredible feat. For South Africa across South Africa, I aim to run 300kms in the 8 days from Johannesburg to Cape Town. Along with your support, generosity and faith, I hope to be inspired to do even more.
