On National Organ donation day, November 27, 2021, a virtual run was organised by MOHAN Foundation in dedication to the organ donors of India and their brave families.
Many of us run every day and some of us look for inspiration. This run was organised to encourage the participants to run for fitness, run to celebrate life in all its colours and run to commemorate this special day.
Following were the details pertaining to the virtual run -
● Run categories 10KM Run, 7KM Run and 5K steps
● Registration fee was Rs.200/-
● Run at any location, any pace, Indoors or Outdoors or even out of India
● Complete the run anytime during the day on Nov.27th 2021
● Click a selfie during your run/walk
● Click a screenshot or a photo of the App displaying completion of your run
● For tracking your run there were a few apps suggested like Run Keeper, Nike App, Garmin, Pedometer, or any other App to track your run
This event was supported by SBI Foundation. The event organisers were Vivena events.
Many volunteers of MOHAN Foundation, life members and members of Patient Support group, TRIOMPH participated. It was heartening to see kidney recipients run the virtual run along with their donors. In all, 110 participants registered for the run.
Those who participated in this event shared their selfies and posted it happily, upon completion of their targets. There were many people who dedicated a day to this cause and shared their experiences. All finishers received a medal and certificate.
We are grateful to the event supporters – SBI Foundation and event organisers – M/s. Vivena Events for their wholehearted support. We thank Ms. Jayalakshmi Krishnan, our Organ Donation Ambassador and a donor family member, for her enthusiasm and lead role in organising and campaigning for the event.
