Every child is in search for knowledge. Every child deserves a good education.

Every runner can inspire a child to keep going. Every runner can lead a child to win.

KaRUNungan 2010 has two running events:

1) Link with the ING New York City Marathon on November 07, 2010

• We are urging Filipino runners to the ING New York City Marathon 2010 to become “Runners for Knowledge”, and dedicate their run for Philippine education. (They can do this through the campaign website, www.karunungan2010.com.)
• As “Runners for Knowledge”, they can ask their family, friends and supporters to support their run by pledging $1 (or more) for every kilometer they will complete during the marathon. Pledges can be made also through the KaRUNungan 2010 website.

2) KaRUNungan 2010 Manila on November 28, 2010

• Distances are: 3k, 5k, 10k and 15k. Reg fees are P400 and P600.
• The course will be in Ortigas. Starting and finish lines will be in the Meralco compound.

3) Those who are not running but would like support our cause can still do so. They can also do it through the campaign’s site, or through the Knowledge Channel’s BPI Account No.3430071172.

Knowledge Channel Foundation Inc. (KCFI) launches KaRUNungan 2010, which aims to help generate awareness and support for the continued resource and learning gaps in the Philippine education system. The funds it will raise through this campaign will be used to produce instructional shows in English, Science and Math, using “virtual” teachers on air. KCFI wishes to help the majority of elementary and high school students, who are still unable to attain adequate mastery of their lessons.

Karunungan 2010 Manila will be held on November 28 at the Meralco Compound in Ortigas. A total of 5,000 runners are expected to join the event.
