Where a Neighborhood Run Becomes a City-Wide Movement for Good 

- Driving towards a ₹3 crore goal to uplift more lives across Mumbai 

12 December 2025 | Mumbai: The Rotary Club of Mumbai Lakers today hosted the official press conference for Brookfield Properties Powai Run 2026, unveiling what promises to be the most dynamic and socially impactful edition of the iconic community marathon yet. 

Born in 2012 as a neighbourhood initiative, Powai Run has evolved into one of Mumbai’s largest, most spirited, and most purpose-driven fundraising runs- bringing together runners, residents, CXOs, corporates, and change-makers who believe fitness can fuel transformation. 

Impact Snapshot: A Year of Accelerated Community Transformation 

Instead of looking at the impact in fragments, Rotary Lakers revealed the consolidated impact their service projects created between July 2024 and December 2025- a testament to how Powai Run fuels real change on ground. 

Total Impact (July 2024-December 2025) 

• Projects completed: 244 

• Volunteer man-hours: 6,450 

• Lives touched: 7,960 

• Total community investment: ₹4.5 crore 

Funds Raised Through Powai Run 

In the previous edition, Powai Run generated approximately ₹2.5 crore, of which 99.9% went directly towards Rotary Club of Mumbai Lakers charitable initiatives, including: 

• Life-saving child heart surgeries through initiatives like Touching Little Hearts 

• Cancer care and patient support, strengthened by Cancer Screening Camps and ongoing Cancer Care programs 

• Girl child education, scholarships, and digital learning support 

• Disability support, including mobility aids, therapy assistance, and projects for special-needs schools 

• Community health and wellness programs, covering Meds for Many, vaccination drives, and preventive health camps 

• Environmental and sustainability initiatives, including Plastic Free Powai and tree plantation drives 

• Hunger alleviation efforts through the monthly Annapurna Drive 

Raising the Bar: Target of ₹3 Crore for 2026 

Building on last year’s ₹2.5 crore milestone, the 2026 edition aims to raise ₹3 crore, enabling Rotary Lakers to scale: 

• Pink Auto Project – empowering women through e-auto self-employment opportunities 

• Community wellness initiatives, including expanded screening camps and mental well-being programs 

• Women-centric projects, such as vocational training and livelihood development 


• Sustainability and green initiatives, deepening efforts of Plastic Free Powai and other ecodrives 

• Scalable, high-impact Rotary service projects, including Meds for Many, cancer care, education support, and disability-focused programs 

With increased corporate participation and stronger on-ground collaborations, 2026 is set to be a landmark year. 

In the words of those shaping and experiencing the movement: 

Eakta Menon, Club President, “Powai Run isn’t just our flagship fundraiser- it’s the heartbeat of our year-long service. Every step taken by a participant powers a project that changes a life.” 

Aafreen Iyer, Club Director, “Each sponsor, each runner, each volunteer becomes part of a ripple effect that stretches far beyond race day. This is community action at its most meaningful.” 

Brookfield Properties, “Our association with Powai Run blends purpose, community, and participation. It brings our teams together for something that truly creates impact.” 

Runner Amarjeet Singh, “You don’t just run for fitness- you run for someone’s future. That’s what keeps me coming back every year.” 

A Glimpse Into Powai Run 2026 Conference
