Event Profile
Subic International
Marathon exists to advocate and initiate holistic development in the Filipino
Society, cultivating a culture of physical health, productivity and patriotism,
and bringing this model to the global community as its contribution to a
peaceful environment for the youth of tomorrow.
It is Subic
International Marathon's vision to be the world class Philippine marathon that
will gather all full marathoners from all over the world much like the New York
marathon.
The Subic International
Marathon (SIM) is now working in partnership with the CORPS Movement
Foundation. SIM and CORPS Movement Foundation have been providing community
development programs in various places in Metro Manila and in different regions
in the Philippines since 1992.
Transforming
communities and societies require social contexts. Hundreds of volunteers from
the faith-based group of the CORPS Movement Foundation are deeply involved in
creating God-centred, service-oriented, and family-based communities. The CORPS
Movement Foundation offers different programs such as: Anti-Drug Campaigns,
Values Enhancement Program, Health and Wellness Advocacies, Workshops on
Strengthening Family Relationships, among others. These programs have
dramatically impacted and significantly contributed to the inculcation of
values and virtues amongst children and youth, and to building safer schools,
barangays, and communities.
