Over the course of our 26-year history we have distributed more than $4.5 million to Bermuda charities.”The Catlin End-to-End event is organised by the Bermuda End-to-End Charitable Trust’s Board, and is supported by numerous local sponsors and individual event participants.The fundraising event’s mission is to be the Island’s premier annual charitable pledge event and is “committed to promoting the happiness and well-being of the local community through all-inclusive activities”.www.bermudaendtoend.bm
