On the 2nd June 2024, at Whalan Reserve, BAPS Charities hosted its annual Walkathon, registering over 650 participants committed to making a difference.
The goal of the BAPS Charities Walkathon 2024 was to harness a community spirit to address homelessness. The efforts demonstrate our commitment to support some of the most vulnerable members of the community. The funds raised are designated for initiatives that provide essential services such as shelter and food to homeless individuals.
