Last week, a team of incredible Thirty Love volunteers put on their running shoes and participated in the iconic Dam to Dam Run, helping to raise vital funds for the Thirty Love Foundation. Their sportive effort and the generous donations from our supporters, resulted in a fantastic fundraising total of €1912.11!
To everyone who contributed – whether through running, cheering, or donating: thank you!
The Dam tot Dam: An Iconic Race
Last week Sunday, September 22nd, thousands of runners gathered in Amsterdam for the 38th edition of the Dam to Dam Run, one of the largest running events in the Netherlands. This historic race spans exactly 10 English miles, and takes runners from the centre of Amsterdam to the streets of Zaandam, where they are greeted by enthusiastic crowds and an unforgettable atmosphere.

Meet the Team
We are, of course, super proud of our team of runners. For some, it was their first running event, whereas others already had some experience with running races. The following volunteers took on the challenge for Thirty Love Foundation: Luuk Lamens, Ben Aranovich, Tom Ketels, Thijs Koek, Daphne Kolenberg, Noortje Hermanides, Do van Hees, Jan Hoogland, and Willem van der Hoeven!
Their hard work and efforts to raise the funds will help us continue our mission of making education and tennis more accessible to children in developing countries.

Looking Forward to 2025
We are already looking forward to the Dam tot Dam run next year! The Thirty Love Foundation will be back for the 2025-edition, hopefully with even more runners and an even greater fundraising total.
Thank you again to everyone who made this year’s event such a success. We can’t wait to do it all again next year!
🏃 See you in 2025!
