For the kids who
need it most.

Every rupee from Funathon goes towards giving these children a better place to learn, the resources they need, and a future filled with more opportunities and smiles.

When 1,000 children walk 4 kilometres on August 9, they're not just taking steps—they're helping improve classrooms, provide essential learning resources, and build a brighter future for children with special needs.

Meet Navachethana.

the home of Navachethana Trust, Bangalore.

Tucked into a quiet corner of Bangalore, Navachethana Trust is a school and day-care home for children and young adults with special needs. For many of the families who come here, it is the place that welcomes their child in — and cares for them with patience, dignity, and love.

"Every step is a promise. Every rupee is a meal. Every smile is a teacher who gets to come back tomorrow."

The teachers and staff here show up every single day — feeding, teaching, and caring for these children with real devotion. Funathon helps give them a better place to learn and the resources they need. That's why Funathon exists.

When your child laces up their shoes on August 9 and walks alongside 999 others, they aren't just walking. They're helping build a brighter future for this school. They're learning — without a single lecture — what it means to show up for someone else.

A 3.5-hour Sunday
your kid won't forget.

From the team behind
Kidathon 2024.

Last year, our team brought together 750 kids for Kidathon — a day of running, laughter, and community. The same hands that built that are building Funathon, but bigger and for a cause that matters even more.
