The Tata Mumbai Marathon (TMM) is a yearly event that brings together people from all walks of life to run, support, and make a difference in the community. Light of Life Trust has been participating in the marathon for a while now.
Firstly, corporate teams played a significant role for Light of Life Trust in TMM 2024. Seven teams (from HDFC, Advanz Pharma, Phoenix Mills, Omnicom Media Group, Asian Star Company, Ion Exchange, All Cargo Logistics) with more than 900 runners, showed up to not only compete but also to represent their companies’ commitment to social responsibility. It was inspiring to see so many businesses coming together for a common cause.
What’s more heartening is the generosity displayed by individuals. Over 550 people donated to support various causes, adding to the collective impact of the event. These donations, big or small, made a real difference in the lives of those in need.
Then there were the fundraisers. More than 25 individuals went the extra mile, quite literally, to raise funds and awareness for different initiatives. Their dedication and hard work exemplified the true spirit, showing that anyone can make a difference if they put their mind to it.
But perhaps the most touching part of TMM is the presence of the Anando beneficiaries. From Worli to Karjat and Alibaug, Light of Life Trust brought together its beneficiaries; seeing these children who carry stories of resilience and hope was just a reminder of why events like TMM are so important.
In essence, TMM is not just a race; it’s a movement of kindness and impact. It’s about coming together as a community to support each other and make the world a better place. As we look back on TMM 2024, let’s carry forward the momentum and continue to spread positivity and change in our communities.
