Walkathon is a platform to bring together people from different walks of life,including people with disabilities,to bring about awareness and a feeling of oneness. This is also an opportunity to build strong bondage between non-disabled and disabled people. This would enable to hold hands with people with disabilities and walk for the cause we all believe in.

10% of the world's population constitutes of people with disabilities, with a majority living in developing countries. Creating awareness and sensitising people about this cause is essential. Towards this end, Samarthanam Trust for the Disabled is organising the Walkathon yet again, a feat we have been achieving with corporate and individual support since 2005. We at Samarthanam strongly believe that the success of Walkathon since 2005 is because of supporters like you.

Towards this mission Samarthanam has been organizing Walkathon since past seven years by bringing together people from different walks of life and create awareness about the cause they work for. With great pleasure we announce "Walkathon 2013 - walk to educate...” a mega event organized to create a buzz across the city(Bangalore). This unique event is an endeavour to create awareness about the abilities of the differently-abled and an attempt to successfully integrate them into the mainstream. This year we are expecting 15000 people from different walks of life to take part in this Walkathon.
