World Vision Malaysia is back to running for a brighter future for children with its #RunForChildren virtual event.
Sign up now with the child-focused organisation to show solidarity for children and advocate for the 42 rights in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). All you need to do is run, jog, or walk (indoors or outdoors) for 42 minutes between May 15 and 31, 2022.
The fundamental focus of the event is to end violence against children by raising awareness that children have rights and should be protected against abuse, neglect and violence.
Registration fee for the Run is RM60. Proceeds from the Run will be channelled to child protection efforts in Malaysia as well as overseas.
