A meaningful run to end 2025 In the Philippines, battling cancer is a journey that no child should face alone. Created through the initiative of the Ricky Reyes Foundation, the Center for Health Improvement and Life Development (CHILD) Haus has stood as a sanctuary of hope for indigent children undergoing cancer treatment. As the first and only temporary home of its kind in the country, CHILD Haus provides free shelter, care, and emotional support to young patients and their families as they receive treatment in nearby hospitals. For its upcoming event, MNL City Run is choosing this organization as its beneficiary. This means that every registration for The Gift of Running is more than just a race entry — it is a gift that directly supports these courageous children and their families. Each stride helps them continue their fight, reminding them that they are not alone and that a community stands with them in hope, love, and healing. This December, MNL City Run invites everyone to run not only with their feet but also with their hearts. Because in every stride, there is a gift — and in every gift, there is hope.
