Marko Kasic, a British philanthropist and founder of FundLife, a leading non-governmental organization established to rebuild communities devastated by Super Typhoon Yolanda in Tacloban City, has completed a 600km running challenge across Luzon, urging greater investment in grassroots sports for children in the Philippines.

Following the recent success of Filipino athletes, including Carlos Yulo’s two gold medals at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Kasic emphasizes the need for substantial support to help young Filipinos reach their full potential.

FundLife uses sports to protect, educate and empower vulnerable children to work hard for a better life. Hence, the project was conceived to encourage Filipino children to start running, which can lead to educational opportunities. The Move Luzon initiative also showcased the beauty and potential of Luzon’s communities. It was a partnership between FundLife, and the Bike Scouts project, a social platform aimed at helping people and bicycles become movers of true community-based resilience. FundLife is also actively involved in providing safe spaces for children. In Tacloban, the Generation Amazing Community Center , an integrated community and learning center for children, will open in October 2024.
