Footprints

Footprints, an annual 5K/10K run conducted by the RISHI Foundation since 2022, echoes the spirit of Rishi, an athlete who loved running and believed in the transformative power of selfless acts. The aim of Footprints is to raise awareness about the needs of orphans and disadvantaged children, connect people together, and foster a sense of community where giving and running can be transformative. Funds raised will be channelled into supporting the Positive Running Program that empowers children and youth by using running as a catalyst to harness their physical and mental abilities.
