ANANDA YANA 2022

In the last two years though we had planned for Ananda Yana, we had to cancel
the event due to the pandemic. The event usually raises funds towards nutrition
needs and running shoes of the children from disadvantaged backgrounds training
with us. The pandemic though led to the cancellation of the event for two years
and we focussed our efforts on raising funds for those affected by the crisis
and towards pandemic relief.

As the world comes out of the pandemic and we all heal as a community, it's time
to come back together in the spirit of compassion and support for those in need.
...

We will focus all our energies, volunteer strength and resources towards helping
the families and children in need through Ananda Yana. We will continue to meet
the objectives of coming together with a spirit of cooperation and giving, while
reaching out to the disadvantaged.

Ananda Yana raises funds for Sai Vishwanath Memorial Trust, through which all
the initiatives that Runners High works with are supported. We will raise funds
through Ananda Yana 2022 to help all our social initiatives and NGOs needing
support in terms of even basic needs as we come out of the pandemic. We will
also reach out to other initiatives working for the families in need.

ANANDA YANA AND RUNNING

Awareness about the event is primarily created via word of mouth. The event is
managed completely by volunteers – managing aid stations, parking, route
logistics, cheering stations and photography. Being conscious of the fragile
environment we live in, we encourage carpooling among participants, and make no
use of plastic. We do not accept sponsorships of any kind for the event.
However, donations in the name of the schools we support are accepted and
acknowledged.


WHY RUNNING

The aim of this event is to bring people together, with an emphasis on
cooperation and the spirit of community.

ANANDA YANA

With each initiative related to running that we undertake in the schools, we
have seen a great change in the lives of the children – beyond just health and
fitness. Our goal is to make running a normal part of the lives of the children,
whatever the challenges they face or backgrounds they come from.

We have published multiple articles with ‘Teacher Plus’, a well known magazine
started by educationists. The articles give an overview of our work in the area
of sports and physical activity for children from varied backgrounds.

 * Fun, Fitness and Inspiration
 * Running is education

The example below will give you an idea about one of the numerous possibilities.
This is one of the various efforts we are involved in:

RUNNING AND CHILDREN AT SHRISTI SPECIAL ACADEMY

In 2013, we started a training program for children and staff at Shristi Special
Academy, Bangalore. The participants included children with autism, down’s
syndrome and mental retardation; physiotherapists and special educators; and
parents, trained along with other runners under the guidance of Runners High.

The group started with very small distances, focusing on getting used to the
rigor of a new physical activity and on building a routine. The training started
with about 4 days of running in a week. Slowly, the team started bonding with
each other and with the other runners. It was inspirational to see the children
break out of their barriers and bloom with their running. They enjoyed the time
out in the open and were very self-motivated in showing up for the workouts.

The special educators and therapists started seeing increased attention levels
in the classroom and marked changes in the children’s abilities. Each child was
monitored and interviewed to understand the changes running was bringing in his
or her life. We could see significant changes in their confidence levels, social
interaction and self-expression. Children, as well as the staff from the school
completed the training program successfully. We are seeing increased
participation from both the children and the staff in subsequent programs.

The following press coverage will give more information on how running has
helped children in the organizations we work with :

 * To help raise funds to support children from disadvantaged background
 * To create an event that is affordable to all based purely on cooperation and
   a spirit of giving
 * To encourage more people to take up running

EVENT FAQ

 * Does Ananda Yana target a huge number of runners?
   
   We want to grow organically and will take more runners only when we truly
   believe we can cater to everyone equally. In the first three years, we
   reached out to a 1000 participants. We then limited the numbers based on the
   route logistics and in the interest of providing a good sustainable
   experience to everyone.
   
   This year the event is being held after a gap of two years on June 5th, 2022.
   We are hoping to reach our usual number of 1200 participants. It is not a
   target that will determine the success or failure of the event. We are
   hopeful that an event based on community and giving will grow organically.

 * Does Ananda Yana target a fundraising amount?
   
   Yes. All organizations we support are registered non-profits. All these years
   the funds we raised went towards supporting shoes, nutrition, registration
   costs of events, transport and other logistics for running trips etc. We
   strive to make running a part of their curriculum and an integral part of a
   journey towards empowerment and independence.
   
   This year we hope to raise Rs. 3,00,000 funds at least towards supporting
   various initiatives. Given that everyone is recovering from the pandemic
   situation our support will be in terms of Nutrition and healthcare for all
   the children.

 * Can I donate towards the cause?
   
   Yes. You can donate towards the cause by making a contribution at the time of
   registration. If you would like to make a significant contribution or want to
   avoid the payment gateway charges, please reach out to us at
   saivishwanathmemorialtrust@gmail.com. Every contribution will receive a 80G
   certified receipt.

   the event to all runners and also put it up on the website. Every expense
   will be supported by a receipt. Every contribution/donation will also be
