Countdown to our exciting Chinmaya Tej Walkathon

Chinmaya Tej is an annual Walkathon organized by Chinmaya Mission Alpharetta benefitting CORD (Chinmaya Organization for Rural Development).

Every year, hundreds of well wishes gather along with family and friends to support several initiatives uplifting the lives of villagers from 1000+ villages across India and Sri Lanka, having fun along the way. It is inspiring to see many attend this event early in the morning cheerfully and contribute whole heartedly.
