THE TEAM

Miles for Smiles, a marathon training program, is an innovative fundraiser initiated in 2000. Participants experience the unique challenge and inspiration of training for and running a marathon, while raising funds for basic education in India. It is a true opportunity for tremendous personal accomplishment and a tangible contribution to the cause that can be taken up by people of all abilities.

The Seattle chapter of Asha started the training program in 2003, in which three rookie runners completed their marathons and raised over $9k. Asha is one of the official partners of Seattle Marathon since year 2007. This is our sixth year and our overall target is to raise $20K.
