Volunteer at the Purple Run for Alzheimers, Sep 30 | Chennai

The second edition of marquee campaign – The Purple Run, a marathon for spreading awareness on Alzheimer’s disease and mental health. Alzheimer’s is the 5th leading cause of death in people over 55 years old, and in India, more than 4 million people suffer from some form of dementia. Despite this, there’s a stigma attached to mental illness among us. The Purple Run, is an initiative by FORUM to raise awareness about Alzheimer’s and mental illness among the young for the elderly.

There was an overwhelming response last year and they are looking at a minimum of 3000 runners this year in Chennai with 100+ business partners and 20,000 runners across the country. They are in need of volunteers to assist and manage the event. They have associated with Bhumi like last year, for providing volunteers to manage and coordinate the event.

Date – Sunday | September 30, 2018
