A warm welcome of primary school. Thank you for opening your doors to the Peace Run!

The stage is set: a painted globe, a white dove and lots of excited children.

To share peace, we first feel it inside. A moment of silence with hands on our hearts.

Holding the torch, each child makes a wish for world harmony.

Thank you for welcoming the Peace Run! We presented a Certificate of Appreciation and “Jharna-Kala” Fountain Art with the name “Change” as a gift of gratitude.
