Burma, Iraq, Eritrea, China, Cuba, Afghanistan and the Democratic Republic of Congo are some of the countries whose natives have sought protection and refuge in Indianapolis. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you could help them rebuild their lives here? An easy and fun way to do this is to register for OBAT’s 5K walk, Race 4 Rehma at www.race4rehma2014.eventbrite.com. This year, we are partnering with Exodus Refugee and Immigration. Proceeds from this event will be donated toward Exodus’ mission of helping thousands of refugees establish their lives in Indiana.

Racing for Rehma means Racing for compassion so invite your friends and family to be a part of this event and to Race for compassion with you. Form a team for any of the above country’s names and walk together in solidarity for them. Enjoy live music, snacks and products made by artisans in Cambodia, Kenya, Haiti and Burma- not to forget the scenic and serene beauty of the canal and the warm temperatures of spring- the perfect combination for an entertaining Saturday morning!

Join OBAT in helping Exodus make Indianapolis the new home of refugees seeking shelter in Indiana from all over the world.

Race 4 Rehma. Race 4 compassion.
