SAGICOR’S Sigma Corporate Run has pumped well over $30 million into the economy since the establishment of the 5.5-kilometre charity walk, run and wheelchair road race some 17 years ago.
The New Kingston-based fund-raising event, set for Sunday, February 22, hopes to secure $25 million to supply medical equipment for the Cornwall Regional Hospital and the Jamaica Kidney Kids Foundation.
Over the years, the corporate run has stimulated economic activities for many small businesses and entrepreneurs. The event has also contributed approximately $140 million to local charities and childcare facilities since its inception.
