About Me
"The obsession with running is really an obsession with the potential for more and more life''. Whilst staying healthy and fit is a common practice in our daily life and we run for fun, here is an opportunity to run for a cause. I am running 21.097 KMS - TMM 2025 for the first time and have chosen to support SNEHA - Society for Nutrition, Education and Health Action.
Appeal
SNEHA is a non-profit organization that has been working to improve the health, nutrition, and safety of women and children living in Mumbai's slums for the past 25 years.
SNEHA was founded by Dr. Armida Fernandez, who routinely cared for premature and underweight infants born into poverty. She was deeply affected by the deaths of these newborns and greatly empathized with the women who saw their children not survive. Moreover, she witnessed a multitude of issues within these communities, such as child malnutrition, domestic violence, and poor access to healthcare facilities.
Dr. Fernandez realized that to make a lasting change, she would need to work directly with the communities. Determined to create that change, Dr. Armida founded SNEHA in 1998.
