5K Annual Run Walk Bike ICKC X Thaakat Foundation
Cost: $50/ per person
Details: Proceeds will benefit Thaakat's DREAMS school program. There is a land surrounded by mountains in a village known as Jam Chakro village which is about 20 kilometers away from the main city of Karachi. More than 300 families are living on this land and more than 10,000 people in surrounding villages.
Here, garbage from the city is dumped by trucks around the clock. All of the inhabitants of this village are engaged in collecting recyclable items like iron, copper, bones, plastics etc from the garbage and they earn their livelihood out of their collections.
Donations will provide an education to our 1,000+ students who live in the villages in and around this landfill.
