Turning Marathon Miles into Educational Milestones: Sunstone's Hi-5 Initiative Makes Fitness Meaningful


(MENAFN- Concept PR) Gurugram, March 24, 2025 – In a spectacular display of corporate wellness innovation, Sunstone, a leading higher education company of India, transformed the traditional marathon experience into a powerful engine for social change at Tuffman Marathon in Gurugram!

The education powerhouse unveiled its impactful "Hi5 for Education, Fit@Sunstone" initiative, creating a first-of-its-kind connection between physical fitness and educational empowerment. For every Hi5 exchanged with Sunstone participants during the race, a direct contribution flowed to NGO SEF's educational programs — turning sweat equity into learning opportunities!

An electrifying contingent of 35 Sunstone champions conquered the course, collectively logging an impressive 500+ kilometers while generating over 3,500 high-fives! This extraordinary effort didn't just showcase physical prowess — it demonstrated how companies can reimagine corporate wellness programs to simultaneously boost employee health, workplace morale, and community impact.
This interesting initiative has dramatically boosted workplace spirit and productivity while powering SEF's crucial educational mission, cementing Sunstone's position as a pioneer in combining employee wellbeing with meaningful social impact.

The Marathon represents our philosophy that meaningful impact requires both personal excellence and collective purpose," declared Mr. Ashish Munjal, CEO and Co-Founder of Sunstone. "Through this initiative, we've proven that corporate wellness programs can transcend traditional boundaries to create ripple effects of positive change. Our employees demonstrated incredible spirit and we are committed to fostering a culture of well-being and social impact."

The event also resonated deeply with NGO SEF. Mainak Roy, Co-Founder and CEO of SEF, said, "Education is a powerful tool for change, and initiatives like this bring communities together for a greater cause. Sunstone’s support through the marathon has been invaluable in helping us reach more students and provide them with the resources they need. We appreciate their efforts in making fitness a force for good."

This initiative sets a new benchmark for forward-thinking organizations aiming to enhance wellness programs while making a social impact—taking one step closer to education, fostering healthier employees, empowered communities, and a more purpose-driven workplace culture.
