Levensloop Deinze 2025: join the ‘Kankercentrum UZ Gent & CRIG team’
On October 4 and 5, another edition of Levensloop Deinze will take place — a sporty fundraising event in support of the Foundation Against Cancer, where participants walk or run to raise money.
Last year, CRIG & Kankercentrum UZ Gent joined forces to form a ‘Kankercentrum UZ Gent – CRIG’ walking/running team and to staff an info stand. This year, CRIG & Kankercentrum UZ Gent love to significantly expand their team and be present as one big UZ-CRIG team.
Levensloop is not a race — there’s no time tracking. The goal is to have someone from your team walking or running at all times between Saturday, October 4 at 3 p.m. and Sunday, October 5 at 3 p.m. Each lap (starting and ending at Sporthal Palaestra) is approximately 1,2 km. You decide how many laps you do, and at what time.
The proceeds from the ‘Levensloop’ initiatives help fund several operational projects for cancer patients. For example, ‘Kankercentrum UZ Gent’ is currently developing a podwalk on psychosocial support and planning an activating waiting area with hand bikes and brain games with support from a ‘Levensloop Grant’. In the past, similar ‘Levensloop Grants’ allowed them to a.o. provide educational materials and goodie bags for AYA patients.
