About the event

At STBB, we commit strongly to give back to the communities around us and our corporate social investment arm, STBB4GOOD, supports various projects. We therefore invite you to come and enjoy the STBB4GOOD Winelands Trail Run which we host in aid of Miles For Smiles.

You can look forward to a 5km, 10km or 18km trail run experience with exquisite views of False Bay, Stellenbosch and Helderberg Mountains. Imagine a cool morning run through the vineyards before enjoying an ice cold beer, glass of wine and something to nibble on with friends at the beautiful Skilpadvlei Wine Estate.

Our STBB4GOOD Trail Run has become known as one of the “must-do” events on the trail-running calendar. The routes are well-marked, enjoyable as well as challenging. Our marshals are efficient, our water tables have been compared with the likes of W2W and our finish line is a treat. We have unbelievable gifts from our generous sponsors and loads of prizes are up for grabs with raffles, podium positions and spot prizes.

After the race, our participants and guests unwind with us under the gaze of the Stellenbosch mountains with views across vineyards. The finish area offers amazing food trucks, artisan beers and Skilpadvlei Gin and Wine. The delicious selection of foods and refreshments ensures that everyone enjoys an active and exciting day out in the Cape Winelands.

ABOUT MILES FOR SMILES

Miles for Smiles was established to create awareness for the plight of children born with cleft lips and palates. One in 10 children born with a cleft palate and lip will die before their first birthday. Miles for Smiles therefore assists to raise funds for Operation Smile to perform corrective surgery on these children. The initiative has a fundamental aim which is to inspire and challenge individuals to make a difference in the lives of those around them.

Quick facts about Operation Smile South Africa:

  • In as little as 45 minutes, one cleft lip surgery can change a child’s life forever.
  • Approximately one in every 750 babies in Africa is born with a cleft lip or cleft palate.
  • Children with facial deformities who do not receive reconstructive surgery often have difficulty breathing, drinking, eating and speaking. As a result, many suffer from malnutrition, medical and psychological problems.
  • A cleft lip or cleft palate operation and follow up care costs approximately R5500.
  • Operation Smile South Africa (OSSA) was officially registered as a section 21 (non-profit) company in March 2006.
  • Operation Smile South Africa (OSSA) has treated over 1650 children since this time.

Operation Smile provides care for children in 60 countries worldwide. Nine resource countries raise funds and provide medical volunteers, while 42 program countries receive education and training and conduct surgeries. Operation Smile works in 13 countries in Africa. More than 5,000 medical professionals from around the world volunteer with Operation Smile.
