Help reaches twice
Helping can be so simple. And this is precisely what makes it so special. By doing the Virtual Charity Run, we are doing something good for our health and helping others at the same time.
How does this work?
Erbe Elektromedizin has launched the Virtual Charity Run as part of its Tübingen Erbe Run. This year our donation will go to our social partner DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS: They will receive 50 Cents for every kilometer one of us runs in the event.
Anyone who takes part in the Erbe Run in Tübingen on September 18 will donate their kilometers to the Tübinger Tafel e. V. .
As the Erbe community we are united through team spirit and our sense of social responsibility.
We want to make an exceptional contribution through joint effort: Be exceptional and join our community!

MAKE SURE TO RUN FROM SEPTEMBER 10th to 18th
No matter how, no matter where, no matter when.
Many people have discovered the joy of running during the pandemic period.
You can run as often as you like between September 10 and September 18, 2022, and collect your miles for a good cause.
You are not a sporting ace? That doesn’t matter. This is all about people who need our help.
Every kilometer counts.
THE DONATION FROM THE VIRTUAL CHARITY RUN 2022 GOES TO DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS
DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS (Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF)) provides emergency medical aid worldwide in crisis and war zones and after natural disasters.
The international organization helps quickly, efficiently and unbureaucratically - without asking about the origin, religion or political convictions of the people affected.
The international and national staff of DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS work in around 70 countries - doctors and nurses, midwives and logisticians. They treat sick and wounded people, care for malnourished children or provide clean drinking water and latrines.
No emergency aid without donations
Humanitarian aid is not free - and DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS works without government funding in order to be able to help people in need regardless of political interests. Only private donations make the emergency aid missions of DOCTORS WITHOUT FRONTIERS possible - from supporters who think across borders about people in need.
ERBE ROADRUNNERS
The history of the Erbe Roadrunners goes back to 1998. An Erbe sales employee brought together a team of 10 co-workers to enter what was then known as the Tübingen City Run. Managing Directors Christian O. Erbe and Reiner Thede supported the sports initiative, had T-shirts printed for the group and invited all the runners to breakfast after the event. This breakfast became a real tradition, like the one established for the annual Tübingen punt race, with the slowest participant receiving a bottle of cod liver oil. In the case of the Erbe Roadrunners, its founder accepts a bottle of the stuff in good spirits every year.
SHOW YOURSELF!
Take a photo of yourself and your fellow runners and send it to us at marketing@erbe-med.com so we can post the photo on our social media channels.

And so we know who you are or where you run, you can download your t-shirt sticker here.
The sticker is double A4 size. Print the file, choose your favorite design, cut it out and enter your name or the country where you run in the empty field. Attach the sticker to your shirt with safety pins or tape.
What else we wish from you: Have fun!
