Description
After the success of the "For the Children" 5K event back in October 2022, Banyan Tree Clinics is excited to present its second virtual race event, "For the Mothers" happening on Mother's Day week! "For the Mothers" is a fundraiser to raise funds for a collaboration with the nonprofit EcoSoap (https://projectecosoap.org/). EcoSoap is a nonprofit organization that works to provide an additional source of income for mothers in underserved communities. They do this by collecting soap scraps from manufacturers and then teaching women in communities how to make and sell their own soap products from these materials. This initiative would both encourage the use of soap and provide a source of income for women in the community.
Banyan Tree Clinics is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization (EIN 86-2060526) dedicated to improving health for rural Cambodians. Help us raise funds to create global health interventions by joining us starting May 14th, at 9 am!
A virtual 5K (3.1 miles), 10 K (6.2 miles), or half marathon (13.1 miles) is a race that can take place from any location you choose. You can run, jog, roll, or walk on the road, on the trail, on the treadmill, at the gym, or on the track. You get to run your own race and at your own pace! This event is open to people of all ages and abilities.
You will have a one-week period to submit your results. We would love to hear about your race. Send us photos on Facebook and Instagram using #FortheMothersBTC2023
