Mouse mommy and family joining the 13th year
anniversary for the “Spirit
of WIPRO Run” has been a successful platform in bringing together
employees, families, and customers with a single goal in mind that is to
contribute back to the society through 3
charity categories which are Community, Education and Ecology.
Funds collected from the annual run are topped up dollar to dollar by Wipro and it goes out to helping the local community where Wipro operates in around the world.

This year the theme for “Spirit of WIPRO Run” is #WeBeforeMe . Love the Wipro spirit of thinking giving back to the community and doing many Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) efforts. Yes! Support that Think of WE Before Me.
A good place to explore wetland life with family and kids at Putrajaya Wetland.
“The Spirit of Wipro Run supports a greater cause – that of giving back to the communities we work and live in. In doing so, we connect the Spirit of Wipro with our larger corporate mission of creating a just, equitable, humane and sustainable world.
Themed ‘We Before Me’, this year’s run is to encourage unity and the spirit of working together,” said Mr Kumar Chander, Regional Director, South East Asia & Middle East in his speech.
Spirit of Wipro Run, which started in July 2006 and has since been a global annual effort. Every year, the Wipro employees and extended community around the world participate in the Spirit of Wipro Run as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility initiative.
The Malaysian chapter of the ‘Spirit of Wipro Run’ run which is held concurrently around the world where Wipro has its footprint took place at federal administrative centre, Putrajaya and on the grounds of the largest constructed freshwater wetlands in the tropics.
The
carnival like atmosphere with games booth, candy floss, popcorn, ice cream,
food trucks and inflatable bouncing castles created further excitement not just
for the children but for adults alike. MR loves the candy floss and ice cream
so much!
Also present at the event to cheer the runners on was the
adorable pink elephant mascot, Carrie Junior and his buddy Tommy the tortoise.
Starting
with a 15-minutes Zumba warm up, the participants
were then flagged off for the run that they have been waiting eagerly for. Zumba
dance to kick start our energy to the run!
Fun was the order of the day as WIPRO took the event to a greater level this year by infusing Colour and Obstacles into the average run.
Albeit the challenge to overcome the obstacles and to endure being sprayed with colour, the participants took it all in good stride which is a clear demonstration of the Spirit of Wipro.
Besides the run, participants also got to partake in other competitions namely the ‘Walk-a-hunt’, Flower Arrangement and Cupcake decoration.
Such a meaningful and healthy “Spirit of WIPRO Run” for the entire family members! Mouse mommy has listed this Wipro family run as one of our family run events annually. Looking forward to participate next year!
