The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity was also supported by the sports team of the Silesian University of Technology. In the ReShape gym in Zabrze, from 14.00 to 20.00, a charity treadmill run was held. It was attended by representatives of the Silesian University of Technology, the Medical University of Silesia and the Academy of Physical Education in Katowice. The run lasted 6 hours and each kilometre run was a zloty for the Orchestra.
- We invited representatives of the largest universities in Silesia to take part in our action, because we want to combine business with pleasure. Firstly, we promote a healthy lifestyle, and secondly, we support the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity. Anyone could come and run. For every kilometre we run, we will pay one zloty to the Orchestra - said Nikodem Wróblewski from the ReShape gym.
Beata Batejko from the Science Popularization Centre of the Silesian University of Technology took part in the run. - In almost every hospital we see equipment donated by the Orchestra. Thanks to it, my child's hearing was saved, which is why I will always support this action. My daughter also supports the Orchestra and collects all day today, said Beata Batejko.
