GREEN CHAMP AWARD WINNER, 2023!
Champ Sharvesh, a 9-year-old in India embarked on a marathon run for 14 days spanning around 750 Kilometers (466 miles) from Kanyakumari to Chennai City, with the aim to raise awareness about the UN-Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Along the way, he was greeted by many leaders and the public who gathered in large numbers to support and encourage him. He handed over flags and flyers depicting the various SDG Goals to the government officials. Young Sharvesh weathered heavy rains across the entire stretch to near the completion of the 750 km long journey. All along the marathon run, he scattered 200,000 seedballs in the open areas along the highway.
We are proud to recognize Champ Sharvesh with the Green Champ Award and wish him the very best to continue his environmental stewardship and inspire others to take action!
