"Healthy citizens are the greatest asset any country can have."
Winston Churchill
This annual event is organised to encourage more people to participate in the sport of running and to promote the integration of persons with disabilities in society. All the donations raised from this event will go directly to Caritas Macau for philanthropic causes and new social service development.
Apart from this activity, UNU Institute in Macau partners with Caritas Macau on a research project that explores the use of technology to support Caritas centers. The participation in this event strengthens the institute’s local engagement in Macau region.
