Shaw and Partners had 15 runners from all areas of the business take part in the annual City2Surf race on Sunday 11th of August 2019.
The iconic race started at Hyde Park in the heart of Sydney’s CBD and snaked through Kings Cross, Rose Bay - including the notorious climb up Heartbreak Hill - and Vaucluse before finishing up in Bondi Beach, totalling 14km in distance.
The Shaw and Partners team was led by Private Wealth Advisers James Seabrook and Kieran Berry and Head of Financial Planning, Charles Stewart. The team raised over $3,800 for the Children's Medical Research Institute (Jeans For Genes) with the Shaw and Partners Foundation generously matching all contributions from runners and supporters to total over $7,600.
Jeans for Genes was established in 1994 by Children’s Medical Research Institute to fund revolutionary research that helps diagnose, understand, and find cures or treatments for conditions affecting kids, including genetic diseases, cancer, and epilepsy. Since Jeans for Genes began, more than 12,000 schools, 20,000 individuals and 41,000 workplaces have taken part and raised $60 million for vital medical research.
