Run For Rights

Below is the Run for Rights Poster:

The reason that this is such as late post is that I haven’t worked on my portfolio for a long time. I have looked at some others portfolios and decided to create a post on this. The Run for Rights campaign was a way for the UWCSEA East community to run almost 5 kilometres around Bedok Reservoir and to hopefully gain sponsors which are donated to two GCs: Daraja, Myanmar A New Dawn and Colours of Kattike. Daraja works in Africa and Colours of Kattike works in Nepal.

I was able to get 100 dollars in donation and I ran pretty fast (if I may say so myself) around Bedok Reservoir. My whole family were also there to run and it was a really great experience. In addition to that, I was able to get pizza after the run which was great because a lot of children like pizza and it was amazing.

However, I am still bothered by the fact that not all GCs are environmentally conscious. This is obvious because of almost all other GCs apart from the one I am part of and others, dealing with other important issues other than the environment including poverty, education and equal rights. There was some deal of wastage but I think if this event were to continue and if there was another event similar to this next year, I would definitely be apart of it.
