KUCHING: More than 2,300 participants are expected to join the upcoming charity run, ‘Run to Save Lives 5.0’, organised by the Malaysian Red Crescent Society (MRCS) Kuching Branch, taking place on 22 June 2025 at the Kuching South City Council (MBKS) grounds.
The event will be officiated by Sarawak Deputy Premier, Datuk Amar Professor Dr. Sim Kui Hian, alongside other distinguished guests, including MBKS Mayor, Dato Wee Hong Seng, Kota Sentosa Assemblyman, Wilfred Yap, and MRCS Kuching District Chairman, Datuk Abang Abdul Rauf Abang Zain.
In addition to overwhelming support from the public, the run has attracted sponsorships from various partners, enabling lucky draw prizes worth RM4,600 to be offered to lucky participants.
The event also received notable backing from Wilfred Yap, who contributed RM10,000 to cover the production cost of medals. This is the second time the Kota Sentosa Assemblyman has extended financial support for the run since 2024.
MRCS Kuching Branch has expressed its gratitude to Wilfred Yap for his continuous support in making this charity initiative a success.
