In this time of a health crisis, it is imperative that we all stay fit despite being in isolation to protect ourselves from getting infected during this COVID-19 outbreak. We at UPAAA, Inc. would like to engage everyone to get into a specific form of physical activity to stay healthy while thinking of our humanitarian goals through UPAAA’s effort by raising funds for our charity projects, particularly our “Iskolarship ng Bayan” (U.P. Scholarship Fund).

This is a challenge for anyone, of all ages and abilities.

This is your chance to be a Home Hero and raise funds from your very own living room, bedroom, balcony, or garden if you dare to run outside, (with a facemask and 6-15 feet away from fellow runners),  be our awesome challenger!

We like to entice everyone, whether by yourself or with your family, with your friends or even so, with your UPAA chapter.

There are no rules – apart from the CDC/government guidelines on how to exercise safely (maintaining social distancing) during this time. The main thing is to get active, have fun, pledge whatever you can to help raise funds for UPAAA.
