IJM LAND Berhad has sponsored RM7,500 in support of the much-anticipated inaugural FitForLife Penang 2015 Fun Run.
IJM Land corporate communications executive Amelia Lim said the company was aiming to engage the community through sports and fitness initiatives.
“The four pillars of our corporate social responsibility are arts and culture, environment, sports and community.
“We are honoured to be able to reach out to the participants through this contribution.
“The company believes in creating a balance between work, life, play and exercise.
“We aim to play a role in educating the community and boosting their health and wellness,” she said during a mock cheque presentation at the Star Northern Hub in Bayan Lepas yesterday.
Star Media Group finance and administration assistant manager Michelle Tang received the mock cheque and thanked all the sponsors who had stepped in to make the event a success.
“With the support of the community, we hope to make the fun run an annual event,” she added.
The 7km run will be flagged off at the SPICE Arena in Relau at 7.30am on Sunday.
