KUCHING, March 28: Register to run to save lives at the Kuching South City Council (MBKS) foyer this June 18.

In a news report by Sarawak Public Communications Unit (Ukas), the event titled ‘Run To Save Lives 3.0’ is organised by the Malaysian Red Crescent (MRC) Kuching branch with Kuching Love Book Association as its co-organiser, 38 Yayasan Amal Cinta as the main sponsor, and supported by JobStock and City Joggers’ Club.

MRC Kuching branch chairman, John Jong, said the run aims to cover the cost of RM100,000 required each year to hold blood donation campaigns.

He explained that the MRC Kuching branch aims to donate 23,000 pints of blood annually to government hospitals in this division.

In the meantime, he encouraged the local community to participate in this charity run and called on government organisations to send representatives from each department as a sign of support.

There will be four categories for the run with two distances of 3km and 5km.

The closing date for registration is May 18, 2023.
