“Children are our greatest treasure. They must be protected and nurtured with care.” – Nelson Mandela
Little Millennium, one of India’s leading preschool chains with over 750 centers nationwide and 75 in Tamil Nadu and Pondicherry proudly hosted the Little Millennium Kids Marathon on February 22nd at YMCA, Nandanam, Chennai. This initiative was a strong stand against child abuse, emphasizing the importance of a safe, supportive environment for children to grow and thrive.
With an astounding participation of 2000 children, this marathon was more than just a race—it was a movement dedicated to ensuring a brighter, safer future for young minds. Mr Anand CEO of Little Millennium flagged off the event in a grand manner.

Sr. Mother Superior Maria Sistina had sent children with varied disabilities from her organization, Nirmala Shishu Bhavan (Missionaries of Charities), along with Sr. Louise Mary. All these children running, especially _Reshmi_ , it was an unforgettable and a breathtaking moment to remember.
