Run for Burma on July 25 at SF Marathon
This
July 25th, Burma Humanitarian Mission (BHM) and BADA will participate in the
San Francisco Marathon Event. The Event includes a 5k run/walk, a
progressive marathon, a half marathon and a full marathon. BHM is an
all volunteer non-profit dedicated to providing medicine and helping to
train backpack medics. The medic teams hike into eastern Burma and
provide emergency trauma care and community health service to the isolated
villages and internally displaced people whom the Burmese junta has chased
from their homes.
To help raise awareness and raise
funds for the backpack medics, BHM and BADA have formed an official
charity team in the San Fran Marathon event. The event includes:
- a full marathon
- half marathon
- progressive marathon (where you run or walk 23.1 miles
prior to July 25th and run the last 3.1 miles on July 25th)
- a 5k run/walk (Group run with Free Burma Banner will be
one option!!!)
There's something for everyone!
