India has a very high number of underprivileged children who do not have access to the basic necessities of life, education being out of the question. Life Dart 5K Run is a fund-raiser event which is organised to help the cause of child welfare, well-being and education. The 1st edition of the event was conducted in 2015. Last year, the total funds raised amounted to Rs.1,96,000 and the proceeds went to Make a Difference (MAD), a leading NGO in India.
The event will commence at 6:30 AM with several warm-up activities such as Zumba and Aerobics followed by the run. After the completion of the run, top three runners and the top woman runner will be bestowed with prizes worth Rs.15000. Through this event, the students of SIBM Bengaluru strive to bring awareness among the people towards the cause of making a difference in the lives of the underprivileged children.
The Public Relations and Media committee of SIBM Bengaluru ran a campaign “#iRun because…” involving the students, the staff, the faculty members and also the security guards and canteen vendors, to promote this noble cause. The General public can join the campaign by sharing their reason for running –“#iRun because…” on the Facebook Event page named ‘Life Dart 2017’.
