At the 12th annual Eker I Run event, ÜÇGE Group Companies made a meaningful impact—not only on the track, but also through sustainability initiatives that benefit both society and the environment. With a strong 40-person running team, ÜÇGE once again demonstrated its commitment to creating a better future.
As part of the event, REVEGO’s iECO Reverse Vending Machines were strategically placed at the venue to promote recycling awareness and support waste management efforts. Waste collection bins placed along the course further enhanced the event’s environmentally conscious approach. All collected beverage packaging was donated to LÖDER (The Foundation for Education and Research of Children with Leukemia), transforming environmental action into tangible social benefit.
This year, the ÜÇGE running team also ran in support of the Educational Volunteers Foundation of Turkey (TEGV) and its campaign “Lighting the Future with Every Step in Our 30th Year.” Every donation collected through the campaign became a light of hope for children’s education and a meaningful contribution to a brighter future.
Esra Güven, Chairwoman of ÜÇGE Group Companies, shared her thoughts on the event:
“Eker I Run is more than just a race for us—it’s a meaningful journey that reminds us of our responsibilities to society, nature, and the future. Once again this year, we took to the field to support children’s education and raise awareness for a sustainable world. The wholehearted participation of our employees beautifully reflects the core values of ÜÇGE. Together, we don’t just run kilometers—we amplify goodness.”
By combining its vision of environmental technologies and sustainability with the spirit of sports, teamwork, and social responsibility, ÜÇGE set an inspiring example at this year’s event.
The donation campaign remains open until October 20. Every contribution supports a child's educational journey and offers everyone the opportunity to be part of this powerful story of hope.
At ÜÇGE, we believe that every step taken together leaves the most valuable mark on the future.
