MORE than $30 million was raised as some 9,300 people came together in a powerful demonstration of generosity, wellness and community spirit as the Guardian Group Foundation and Guardian Life Limited, Guardian Group SHINE 5K Night Run/Walk 2026.

Held under the theme ‘Heart & Sole’, this year’s event united individuals, families, schools, corporate teams, running clubs, sponsors, and volunteers across Kingston and Montego Bay in support of three impactful beneficiaries: Kingston Public Hospital (KPH), Falmouth Public General Hospital and Project STAR.

All proceeds from the SHINE 5K will go towards supporting these beneficiaries, including the purchase of much-needed medical equipment for KPH and Falmouth Public General Hospital, as well as continued intervention and support programmes through Project STAR.
