Be The Movement Charity Walk in support of World Hunger Relief 2011

There are just so many issues and causes to support in the world to make things better.  One of them is the World Hunger Relief.  World Hunger Relief is the world's largest private sector hunger relief effort in over 100 countries.  The World Hunger Relief Malaysia campaign is an initiative of KFC and Pizza Hut Malaysia stores nationally to spread awareness and generate funds within Malaysia.  All funds raised are donated to the United Nations World Food Program.

Last Saturday, October 29, 2011, I joined Be The Movement Charity Walk in support of World Hunger Relief 2011.

We were flagged off by the Sultanah of Johor, Raja Zarith Sofiah Sultan Idris Shah at 5.45pm. The 5km walk started and ended at Istana Kehakiman in Precinct 3, Putrajaya.

Collection of T-shirt is from 1pm to 3.30 pm so we have to be there earlier to collect it.

As it has been raining almost every evening, each participant was given a hooded plastic poncho.  Turned out it was a bright sunny day :)

Meal coupon was provided to the participants redeemable for a burger at the KFC booth or a pizza at the Pizza Hut booth or a chicken rice (?) at Rasamas booth.

There were a concert featuring Mizz Nina, Hujan and other local artistes and a mini carnival with fun filled activities.

More than 10,000 joined this walk and we received a certificate of participation

and a goodie bag upon completion of the walk.

It was a good experience and surprisingly, not tiring at all.  It was just another evening walk, only with more than 10,000 other people :)

Till next week, looking forward to join again next year.
