The Green Circle RWITC Foundation set for a historic launch
By Vivek Jain
 
The RWITC has already set the banner high in the promotion of racing and quality of its racing program. Year after year, new initiatives help to keep the visibility of the sport and the Club under the arc lights.
 
In recent years, we’ve walked away from our comfort zone and encompassed activities that our relevant for the city of Mumbai. Environment, green spaces, wellness, culture, charity have all been part of the menu. The city has sat up and noticed, with appreciation!
 
In line with these objectives, and to group all such activities under one umbrella, we conceptualised an independent entity and have called it The Green Circle - an RWITC Foundation. The logo, which resembles the green racing track, is symbolic of the synergy between racing and our “green dream”
 
The Foundation is now being launched, bringing all our social, cultural, and public programs under a single banner. It is our commitment, as custodians of the green heart of the city, to preserve and further the cause of environmental sustainability and which is the core reason for our existence. The Foundation proposes to collaborate with institutions like TERI, and other public and private organisations to create events and programs which have sustainability as its focus.
 
It is but fitting that the launch of this most unique endeavour will be at the hands of Dr.Farooq Abdullah, Union Cabinet Minister, and Dr.Rajendra Pachauri, a distinguished Nobel Laureate and head of TERI in the paddock of Mahalakshmi Race Course on Friday afternoon, as a start to the 130th Anniversary celebrations of this iconic landmark of our city. A rare honour indeed for the RWITC!
 
This would be aired live on rwitc.com from 1.45 pm onwards.
