Jaipur, May 06, 2022.
Organising
1st of its kind, Dharav High
School is all set to organize Run for
Her,a Family Run on Mother’s Day to honour women across the country. In
association with Jaipur Runner’s Club, the run will be held in two formats of
2km and 5km on May 8, 2022. Over 2000 participants have registered for the run
in only two days, after which the registrations have been closed. The run is
scheduled to start from Dharav High School, R-7 & S-3, Sector - 6,
Vidhyadhar Nagar at 6am and will end at the same point.
A
brainchild of Chairperson Ms. Devyani Jaipuria, the run has been undertaken in
tandem with her belief that fitness and awareness about fitness must start from
schools.
Talking about the event, Ms.
Devyani Jaipuria, Chairperson, Dharav High School, said, “Run for Her is a first-of-its-kind initiative to be organised in
Jaipur. At Dharav High School, we promote a holistic education where sports
play an integral part in students’ learning outcomes. We believe that awareness
about fitness as well as sensitizing students towards women’s issues should
start at a young age. The overwhelming amount of registrations that we have
received have assured us that parents echo our beliefs as well.”
To
support this cause, Milind Soman, actor,
model and fitness-enthusiast, will lead the run on May 8 at Dharav High
School.

the Run are school Director Ms. Aditi Misra, School Principal Ms. Seema
