‘RHWB’s mission is ‘To Build a Network of amazing Human Beings’.
One common trait of amazing human beings is to give liberally to others - Individuals & Organizations. We use running as a medium to bring together these amazing individuals and with this we can provide an opportunity for them to contribute to a charitable organization of their choice by leveraging ‘CHARITY MILES’ app.
Charity Miles is an organization that helps convert running miles into charity dollars – by collaborating with business enterprises and leveraging their contributions to charities as a part of their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) budgets.
