Back for a third year at AIEC, the Acumen team invites all conference delegates to join us for Footprints of Change: Acumen 5K Run for Veerni Literacy Programme.

Here’s what you need to know

Veerni Literacy Project is on a mission to empower and educate girls who face barriers to education in Rajasthan. By participating in this event, we can make a significant difference in their lives. The funds raised will directly support their comprehensive literacy program, providing academic support, life skills training, and access to quality education.

Whether you are an experienced runner, a casual walker, or simply want to support a great cause, this event is for everyone. Feel free to bring your friends and colleagues along… the more the merrier and the bigger the impact for these young girls.

Lace up your running shoes, put on your walking gear, and let’s come together to create a positive impact. Together, we can help transform the lives of these young girls and empower them with education and opportunities for a brighter future.

For every participant, Acumen, part of Sannam S4 Group, will donate AUD$50 to the Veerni Literacy programme. If you are unable to join us, but would still like to make a donation you can do so directly on the Veerni website here. Every little bit counts and will make a significant difference in these girls' lives.

Thank you in advance for your support and generosity. We look forward to seeing you at the Footprints of Change: Acumen 5K Run for Veerni Literacy Programme and having a fantastic time together while making a positive impact!
