About the Event

From the Sanskrit word ‘Seva’ meaning service, Sevathon was born as an India Community Center initiative. It is a platform designed to bring Non Profit Organizations and participants together. When participants register for an activity at Sevathon and select the NPO they want to support during their registration process, they help the NPO fundraise for their cause. Walkers, runners, yoga and dance enthusiasts come together each summer to strengthen the Non Profit Organizations' causes and communities.  Don’t miss out on the thrilling experience of participating in this race. Lace up your running shoes and be part of this incredible event. Come celebrate and fundraise with us!   Event: 18th Annual ICC Sevathon 2026
