Meet our mini Fun Runners

A big thank you and mazeltov to Leo Seager (aged six) and his sister Annabel Seager (aged eight), who ran the Maccabi Fun Run with their parents to raise money for Mitzvah Day and in turn help keep us running

“I enjoyed it and found more energy each time I completed a lap,” said Annabel. “There were lots of people taking part, which was good because it meant they were all raising money for charity."

“I loved running and getting a medal at the end,” added Leo. “I liked racing with my sister."

The siblings are now looking forward to participating in Mitzvah Day 2023. Last year they joined their friends in making cards for Norwood at Mill Hill United Synagogue’s cheder.

Mitzvah Day CEO Stuart Diamond stressed how vital fundraising such as this is, saying: “The backing of Leo, Annabel and every single person who has fundraised for, or donated to, Mitzvah Day means we can continue to support and inspire over 55,000 people from around the world, in 41 countries, to make a difference to the community around us. It ensures we can keep on introducing people to social action, to their neighbours and to local charities, setting up projects which address real needs."
