Five years ago, Orphan Run started with a group of students who believed in a cause. There are over one hundred and thirty million orphans in the world today.  Without parents, these children have no one to care for them and no one to address their needs. 

That’s where we step in.  With your help, Orphan Run, a community club at UTM, is able to better their situation and fulfill their basic needs by providing money which goes towards  their shelter, clothing, food, and education.

In 2009, Orphan Run reached the $25,000 milestone while successfully bringing together the hearts of different communities, ethnic, and religious backgrounds.  With universities, colleges, high school, and local businesses supporting the initiative, this event has become a testament to the idea that individuals who unite together for a common goal are capable of creating change and making a genuine difference, not only within our own community, but also on a larger global scale.
