Subang Jaya, [13 November 2019] – The Malaysia Retail Chain Association (MRCA) will be organizing the 6th MRCA Charity Run on 14th December 2019, Saturday at Summit USJ. The theme for this year is “Pre-Countdown 2020” and we are aiming to have 2,000 runners joining us. In line with the theme, we will be having a pre-celebration to usher in year 2020 with all participants which will include live band performances, lucky draw with over RM20,000 worth of prizes to be won and the night will end with a firework show.

MRCA Charity Run was initiated by Datuk Lee Hwa Cheng in year 2014 and this annual event aims to raise fund for charity bodies. This year, we are targeting to raise RM50,000 for selected charity bodies.

This year’s run consists of two categories which are the 10km and 5km. Contrary to previous years, this year the run will be a fun run (non-competitive) which is opened to the public for all ages. Runners can register via MRCA website (www.mrca.org.my/activities/events).

Mr. Jordan Ng, the Organising Chairman, emphasized that the charity run strives to raise funds for the needy as selected charitable bodies will be receiving cash donations from the MRCA Branding Education Charity Foundation. The foundation was established in 2010 by Dato’ Tay Sim Kim and its objective is to provide educational and financial assistance to those in need and to also assist other charitable activities for the betterment of the community. This year, the committee has come out with a new collection of MRCA finisher medal where each runner will be getting the “M” finisher medal upon completion of the run.
