Welcome to the Standard Chartered Nairobi Marathon 2011

Standard Chartered Bank is proud to once again sponsor the ninth edition of the Marathon. The continued sponsorship of this iconic sporting event is a demonstration of the bank’s’ commitment to the communities where we do our business and an affirmation of the brand promise - Here for good.  This is especially for the 2011 edition when the bank celebrates its 100 years of existence in Kenya.

Thank you for being one of our valiant supporters of this event which has become the greatest professional and social running event of the year bringing together runners , supporters , staff , corporates and the community.  We are delighted to note that more and more participants are coming forward to support this event. Like many other big marathons, Standard Chartered Nairobi Marathon is a charity fundraising event. Our marathon raises monies for Seeing is Believing, a Standard Chartered Bank initiative for eradicating avoidable blindness in children under the age of nine years. Through your efforts in the 2010 Marathon, over 800 children have had their sight restored. In 2011 we expect to do even better. All proceeds from the marathon registration will go towards supporting Seeing is Believing projects across Kenya.
