“Wear your trainers” is certified “Génération 2024” for the school year 2023-2024

Paris 2024 and ELA share the common ambition to promote and develop sport for everyone in France and abroad, especially for youth. They are also convinced that sport can unify most people around a commun cause.

In that way, Paris 2024 and ELA announce the certification “Génération 2024” for the campaign “Wear your trainers and beat disease” 2023-2024 which invite the whole youth, through schools, to mobilize for the fight against leukodytrophies.

How does it work?

The “Wear your trainers and beat disease” solidarity operation designed for schools is entirely free and provided on a turnkey basis.

Testimonials

I have participated in many Dictations and “Wear your trainers” operations! What I have tried to give, ELA gives me in return.

Béatrice Hess, Paralympic champion, honorary member of ELA

The whole family is mobilised for ELA: my wife is a PE teacher and organises the “Wear your trainers” operation in her school. Our son has grown up and become a top-level sportsman like me, he wears the colours of ELA. He has participated in Dictations and cross-country events.
