From first-of-their-kind adventures to personal endurance challenges, July has showcased the incredible determination of the GiveWheel community. Every mile, stroke and step taken has helped raise incredible funds for charities making a real difference.
Before we jump into this month's fundraising spotlights, we're excited to share that ABP Southampton Marathon Festival has joined the GiveWheel community as our newest partner. As the event's Official Fundraising Platform, we'll be supporting thousands of participants as they raise money for the festival's charity partners, and more!
