Run for Orphans in Lashio, Myanmar
Donation protected
Help us support an orphanage in Lashio, Myanmar by making a donation. For every registration donating to this cause, we will also contribute a portion of the proceeds to this orphanage.
Background / History
In 2008, our team went to a small village in Gutian, China where they stayed with an orphanage for a few days. It was up in the mountains, our hearts began to stir for underprivileged children, particularly those deserted by their parents due to poverty or other reasons.
In 2009-2010, our team went again to Fuzhou and Xiamen China to visit two orphanages with children with various disabilities. It was there, we knew we wanted to dedicate our lives to something much greater than just ourselves or the American Dream.
Between 2011-2018, our team worked in various fields/industries before founding an event company producing runs around the U.S. and serving over a quarter million participants.
From 2018-2019, our team had the opportunity to visit an orphanage in Myanmar and an orphanage in Taiwan where we began to do our best to meet the needs of basic necessities such as food and housing for the people there.
From the collection of years seeing the needs around us, we formed our mission:
To love others deeply and care for the underprivileged people around the world. We do this by looking beyond just the comforts of our own lives and walking in faithfulness in the opportunities we see around us.
