Disability service provider Activ has become the latest organisation to withdraw a major fundraising event, with this year's City to Surf cancelled on the back of state and federal government coronavirus directives.
The City to Surf has become an iconic WA event over the past 42 years but its status as the state's largest charity run is under threat from a relatively new event that employs a very different business model.
SPECIAL REPORT: Activ Foundation and the Royal Flying Doctor Service are Western Australia's two largest not-for-profit charities, yet they have very different approaches to philanthropy and fundraising.
