GreenHopeUAE members Volunteer at the Dubai Terry Fox Run |
|---|
|
The annual Dubai Terry Fox Run was held on 19th April at the picturesque Dubai Festival City.Thousands of people from all walks of life turned up to run , walk , roller blade and show solidarity with the cause of fighting cancer. Green Hope UAE , my youth organisation which believes in carrying forward the Rio+20 legacy of sustainable development , volunteered for this mega event. Addessing social issues is an integral part of sustainability and Green Hope members volunteered to show support for the indomitable spirit of Terry Fox and carry forward the fight against cancer. Our day started at 6.15am and we helped the organisers with the various pre-race tasks. Our volunteer group , conspicuous in their fluoroscent green jackets , spread out at various points of the run route , to guide the participants . We manned the water stations and supplied the thirsty runners as they completed the course. We jotted down our views on the "I Run for ... " wall and pledged to join again next year. Our members received special appreciation from the organisers for their diligence and hard work they put in as volunteers, from 6.15am in the morning till 11am , when the event concluded.
