On May 31, 2025, BAPS Charities brought the community together in Suwanee, GA, for its annual “Spirit of Service: Walk-Run.” This inspiring event supported the many initiatives of BAPS Charities, which mobilizes the collective spirit of volunteers worldwide to serve individuals, families, and communities across five key areas: Community Empowerment, Educational Services, Environmental Protection and Preservation, Health and Wellness, and Humanitarian Relief. Together, these efforts foster selfless service and help build stronger communities, a healthier nation, and a better world.
With over 750 participants, the event welcomed individuals of all ages, including Georgia State Representative Matt Reeves, Jesus Rubio from Senator Reverend Raphael Warnock’s Office, Chris Minor, Director of Parks and Recreation for Gwinnett County, and Lindsey Jorstad, Community Services Director for Gwinnett County. Each joined in solidarity for the cause.
The BAPS Charities Walk-Run in Suwanee is one of over 100 similar events held across North America as part of a broader initiative benefiting local organizations. For over 20 years, BAPS Charities has organized more than 1,100 walks, making a meaningful impact by supporting important causes and promoting a spirit of service and unity.
