Rossmann Run Participants Support the Polish Paralympic Committee with the App

In the Rossmann Run with the app, even the smallest step counts. Why? Because it makes a big difference. You don't have to be an athlete, run fast, or break records. What matters is that you're doing something for yourself and, at the same time, supporting the Polish Paralympic Committee ❤️

Rossmann's mission is to inspire and support people in loving themselves every day. - Taking care of one's fitness is one expression of this love. Each of us knows how difficult it can sometimes be to force ourselves to exercise. And how difficult it is for people with disabilities, we can only imagine. They are true heroes, and I admire their resilience. It's an honor to be on the same team – notes Marcin Grabara, President of Rossmann.

During registration for the Rossmann Run with the app, participants make a payment that entirely goes to the Polish Paralympic Committee. The payment operator is Przelewy24. The funds will be used to implement the "Sport – Your Strength" project, which involves sports camps for people with various disabilities from all over Poland.

During the camps, participants will have the opportunity to:

  • participate in sports training,
  • benefit from consultations with physiotherapists and masseurs,
  • talk to a psychologist, pedagogue, and coach.

The sports camps, planned for 2025-2028, are expected to include a minimum of 1,500 people, including 300 minors. People with physical disabilities, visual impairments, and mild intellectual disabilities will participate. For many of them, it will be their first contact with sports, and for others, a chance for integration after difficult experiences.

The President of the Polish Paralympic Committee, Łukasz Szeliga, expressed his personal thanks to the race participants:

It is with great joy and gratitude that I join this unique initiative – the Rossmann Run with the app, which not only promotes physical activity but, above all, supports people with disabilities on their path to rehabilitation and fuller participation in society. This is a gesture of solidarity that has a real impact on the lives of others. It is thanks to events like the Rossmann Run that people with disabilities who have never had contact with sports before have the chance to start this extraordinary journey. I thank all participants who register for the race and decide to make a donation supporting our project.

The Rossmann Run connects not only runners but also organizations. The payment operator is Przelewy24, whose CEO, Michał Hull, also wants to convey something to the participants!

The Rossmann Run with the app is more than just a race – it's proof that together we can change the world for the better. As Przelewy24, we are proud to support an initiative that gives strength to those who face adversity every day. Every step taken by the participants is a gesture of solidarity and hope for the beneficiaries of the Polish Paralympic Committee. We congratulate everyone who takes part – it is thanks to you that sport becomes a tool for change and a symbol of true unity.

If you are running in the Rossmann Run or encouraging others to do so – thank you very much! 💙 On May 24th, we are creating something wonderful together – we are taking care of our health and well-being, and above all, we are supporting those who need it. This is why we love sports!
