🏃 Why We're Running for Afanoc

Cancer statistics don't show what's really at stake — a child fighting for their life, and a family rewriting every plan they had. This October we're turning that into action: a charity run where every kilometer raises money for AFANOC. 🧡

🎗️ Who Is AFANOC?

Founded by parents who refused to let any family face childhood cancer alone, AFANOC supports families from diagnosis onward — including a home, La Casa dels Xuklis, where they can stay together during treatment. We visited last year and saw what that support really means. ❤️

🌍 Runners, But Also Neighbors

This run is how our community puts down roots in Barcelona. Digital nomads move through this city constantly — this is our chance to give back to it directly, alongside the local families and organizations who call it home. 🤝

🎉 After the Finish Line Rooftop Charity Village & Rooftop Pool Hangout

Head to La Fabrica & Co's rooftop for the AFANOC Charity Village. Grab solidarity merch from local artists, donate directly, or just hang with fellow runners. 💛 100% of funds go straight to AFANOC.
