The 13th edition of BHPetrol Orange Run presented a total of RM30,000 to three charitable homes, with each receiving RM10,000 following the completion of the run on 30th September 2018.

The three recipients were Persatuan Orang-Orang Cacat Anggota Malaysia, Persatuan Kebajikan Pusat Jagaan Rumah Kasih Harmoni Paya Jaras and Pusat Jagaan Persatuan Kebajikan Kanak-Kanak Trinity Komuniti Selangor.

“We are very pleased to celebrate the 13^th year of our BHPetrol Orange Run with the strong turnout of participants, all coming for a good cause this year. This initiative not only promotes more active lifestyles but also allows us to give back to the less fortunate, as the proceeds go towards deserving charitable organisations,” said BHPetrol managing director Tan Kim Thiam.
