Old Goods Festival

There are so many things that it's a pity to throw away, but they take up space what should we do? In 2025, Standard Chartered will host the first-ever Old Goods Festival, calling on runners to donate second-hand sports equipment for a charity sale. The event advocates the spirit of resource conservation and the repurposing of old items. It’s an eco-friendly and beautiful thing to not waste and let each item fulfill its intended value. On the event day, come visit the Old Goods Festival booth at the Forest Market and shop for charity. The proceeds from the market’s sales, after administrative fees, will be fully donated to the "Futuremakers by Standard Chartered Global Charity Program."

Location:Taipei City Hall North Plaza

How to Participate:
Runners who register for the 2025 Standard Chartered Marathon can bring second-hand sports items to the Old Goods Festival booth at the pre-race check-in area. Present your items to be examined by the event staff, and once approved, you can donate them. To ensure the items' suitability and value, they will be inspected by the event staff. The event organizers have the final decision on whether to accept the donated items.

  • Runners whose items pass the review can set the sale price, with increments of NTD200 per item.
  • Donors will receive limited-edition gifts from the event. Those donating shoes will also receive a voucher from New Balance, the race’s apparel partner.
  • The items will be priced and sold at the Forest Market booth, with all proceeds donated to the Futuremakers charity program. Any unsold items will be donated to other organizations.
