The Run for Pencils is a cause-oriented activity under the Black Pencil Project (BPP) wherein running enthusiasts partake in the advocacy of promoting primary and indigenous education amongst Filipino children in the far-flung communities around the Philippines. Volunteer runners make use of their official race performances to collect pledges from supporters, who can give a corresponding donation for every kilometer they complete. In turn, these contributions are consolidated to create a pool of funds that would later be used to purchase school supplies and other learning facilities for schoolchildren.
