HONG KONG, Dec. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- On Sunday, 9 March 2025, the Goodman Magic Mile Charity Run will celebrate its 10th anniversary where it all began, at the iconic ramp in Goodman Interlink, Tsing Yi.

This milestone event, in partnership with Habitat for Humanity Hong Kong, will bring the community together once again to support Habitat's 'Project Home Works' program. This initiative aims to improve the living conditions of the elderly and low-income families living in substandard housing in Hong Kong.

Participants can choose from two races:

This year, the Goodman Magic Mile Charity run introduces a new family-friendly component - the Little Fashion Icons Contest. Children under the age of 12 are welcome to dress up creatively and comfortably for their run, for the chance to win amazing prizes. Adding to the vibrant atmosphere, Goodman's customers Vitasoy and HFT will support as beverage sponsors, while NOC Coffee Co. will keep the adults energised with barista-made coffee. Interlink café partner Maxim's will host a pop-up booth providing complimentary food and beverages. Additionally, there will be a fundraising sausage sizzle inspired by the Australian BBQ tradition.

While the atmosphere will fun, the event raises money for an important cause. "In Hong Kong, many vulnerable families, including the elderly and people with disabilities, continue to live in unsafe and inadequate housing," said Jo Hayes, Chief Executive Officer, Habitat for Humanity Hong Kong. "Through our partnership with Goodman and the Magic Mile Charity Run, we are able to bring tangible improvements to their lives by funding essential home repairs and renovations. Every step taken and every donation made helps build a more hopeful, resilient future for those in need. We are excited to once again join forces with Goodman and the community for this impactful event".

Deputy CEO of Goodman Group Greater China, Andrew McGregor, said: "We are determined to make the 10th Goodman Magic Mile Charity Run our best one yet. This event brings our community of partners and sponsors together in Hong Kong to raise funds for a worthy cause. We are proud to partner once again with Habitat to help meet the essential needs of vulnerable local families. We look forward to welcoming customers, corporate sponsors and their families, as well as our Goodman team to this milestone event, so please register now and come join the fun."

The event is returning to Goodman Interlink – one of the company's landmark logistics facilities. The property is currently undergoing a facade upgrade, completing in early 2025, to be more sustainable and resilient to local weather conditions.

SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Pinkfong Company, the global entertainment company, announced today an exciting collaboration between the global phenomenon Baby Shark and the iconic Sesame Street friends. This special collaboration will feature exclusive merchandise, a holiday music video, and a playlist set to premiere on both the Pinkfong and Sesame Street English YouTube channels. This heartwarming collaboration brings together two of the most iconic names in family entertainment as they share a message of joy and togetherness leading up to Baby Shark's milestone 10th anniversary in 2025.

Set in a whimsical winter wonderland, the festive music video features a brand-new orchestral version of the world-famous "Baby Shark" song by Pinkfong. The updated arrangement is enriched with cheerful holiday elements—including the delightful sound of sleigh bells—that capture the magic of the season. Fans of all ages will enjoy seeing Sesame Street's Elmo, Cookie Monster, and Abby Cadabby join Baby Shark and William in a fun-filled game of tag, spreading holiday cheer with their playful energy.

"This collaboration is a wonderful celebration of friendship, joy, and the holiday spirit, embodying everything the holidays are about," said Bin Jeong, CEO of Pinkfong USA. "As Baby Shark approaches its 10th anniversary, we are thrilled to team up with Sesame Street, like-minded friends that have brought happiness to generations of families."

"Our previous collaboration with Baby Shark received an overwhelmingly positive response from families, and we are excited to expand on the vibrant music video to include a magical and meaningful holiday spin," said Jennifer Gioia, VP of Content and Programming at Sesame Workshop. "As Sesame Street celebrates our 55th anniversary, we are happy to be a part of Baby Shark's 10th anniversary milestone celebration year."

Adding to the festivities, a special Print on Demand Apparel and Accessories Collection celebrating the friendship between Baby Shark and Sesame Street will launch in December 2024 through a partnership with Mad Engine.

Building anticipation for Baby Shark's milestone anniversary, The Pinkfong Company released a special anniversary brand mnemonic that will kick off a year-long celebration filled with exciting surprises throughout 2025. The mnemonic combines Baby Shark's iconic melody with upbeat orchestral elements, while its vivid, crayon-sketch-style 2D animation captures both the brand's decade-long journey and its commitment to bringing everyday fun to kids and families around the world.

The special holiday music video is available on the official Pinkfong and Sesame Street YouTube channels.
