Run To Make A Difference


Just when did you last run for a cause?  Heard of Fr. Robert Reyes, the running priest?  He runs to force  issues in the hope of bringing change.  Hollywood A-listers Edward Norton and Alanis Morissette ran the NY marathon for a wilderness conservation.  How about the countless others whose idea of running is helping other people?  Can you be in the same boat one day?  The answer is plain and simple - Yes!

Running for various causes and advocacies is a selfless act. When you think less of yourself and more of others, sharing comes easy. And you don't have to be big, moneyed or popular to make that sensible contribution.  Oftentimes, it's the ordinary people that do extraordinary things.  And it's the little things put together that means a lot.

On June 26, we will run for a cause.  We will RUN for BEBE.   We will join her fight against nasopharyngeal cancer.  On this day, we will rally behind her.  We will show her the indomitable Filipino spirit to keep living and loving. I'm sure it will be worth each and every stride. 

Mark the date!
