The rule of the game is as follows: Longines will donate the equivalent amount of 100 meals distributed to disadvantaged children for every clear jump over the Longines obstacle during the Grand Prix classes. In 2014, Longines provided the equivalent of 45,000 meals to children at the JustWorld programs in Cambodia, Honduras, Guatemala and Colombia. “I can't begin to thank Longines enough for their generosity. Thanks to their support, not only do the children receive nutrition meals, but they are also able to learn and move forward with their lives,” said Jessica Newman.
