THEME OF THE ROTARY -  “Create Lasting Impact”

"Creating Lasting Impact" means moving beyond short-term charity to deliver sustainable, measurable, and enduring improvements to communities. It emphasizes transforming lives rather than just completing one-off projects.

About Rotary Club of Nigdi - Pune 

Runathon of Hope was first envisioned in the year 2010 with the goal of uniting the masses together for social causes and help bring about change in our society. The marathon is the biggest of its kind in the surrounding areas, attracting participation from schools & industries.

It is the brainchild of The Rotary Club of Nigdi-Pune. We look to invite the larger public to set off on a journey with us that will help the society get involved in a positive way by contributing to the large-scale social projects that the rotary club has been undertaking for years.

Rotary club of Nigdi is a part of the world-wide organization Rotary International. The club is 38 years old and has 120+ members. The club executes its charitable projects through its foundation – Rotary Club of Nigdi Pune- Charitable Trust.
