From the Organizer
Join us for #RunForMamaIndia, a global Virtual 5K hosted by Intuitive Breath in support of children in Kolkata’s Red Light District.
This event is an invitation to move with purpose. Every step you take helps fund Drop-In Centers in Kolkata—safe spaces that provide care, nourishment, education, and hope for children impacted by human trafficking.
🌏 How it works:
This is a fully virtual event, meaning you can participate from anywhere in the world. Run, walk, or move your 5K in whatever way feels aligned for you.
📅 When:
Complete your 5K anytime during November 2026, at your own pace and on your own schedule.
👟 Community + Teams:
You’ll have the option to create or join a team, making this a shared experience with friends, family, or your wider community. We’ll also host a collective accountability group to stay connected, inspired, and moving together throughout the month.
💛 Why we run:
All proceeds support Drop-In Centers for children in Kolkata’s Red Light District—providing essential resources and safe refuge.
✈️ From intention to impact:
In February–March 2027, Intuitive Breath will travel to Kolkata to witness and share the direct impact of this collective effort, visiting the very centers we are supporting together.
This is more than a race—it’s a chance to be part of something meaningful, to move with intention, and to contribute to real change across the world.
Run with us. Move with purpose. Be part of the impact.
