The BAR GivingBack Duathlon is GivingBack's flagship annual fundraising event - a cycling and running challenge that brings together Bangalore's sporting community for a cause that matters. Every participant who takes the start line does so for the patients who can't. Every kilometre covered raises funds for free and subsidised spine surgeries for those who cannot afford world-class care. Every finish is a step closer to someone else getting back on their feet. Since 2021, the event has grown into one of Bangalore's most purposeful sporting days - attracting cyclists, runners, and triathletes who believe their sport can change more than just their own lives.
Join us in making a difference with the “Back in the Game Fundraiser,” an initiative by GivingBack Charity
Based in
Bangalore, our mission is to provide subsidized spine surgeries for patients from underprivileged financial backgrounds. Since 2014, under the expert guidance of Dr. Arvind Bhateja, a renowned neurosurgeon with two decades of experience, we have successfully performed over 400 life-changing surgeries with Dr.Bhateja
Since 2014, GivingBack has performed over 400 subsidised spine surgeries for patients who had no other option — daily wage workers, domestic helpers, farmers, and breadwinners who were told the surgery they needed was simply beyond what they could afford.
Every fundraiser, every event, and every donation goes directly towards closing that gap.
Every year, countless individuals suffer from debilitating spine conditions that prevent them from living a full, active life
The cost of spine surgery, averaging INR 75,000, is a significant barrier for many families
Through our GivingBack program, we aim to remove thisbarrier and give patients a chance to reclaim their mobility and independence
Ride or run for a cause. Our annual BAR GivingBack Duathlon and virtual events are designed for the sporting community to turn their kilometres into funding for spine surgeries.
Every piece of GivingBack merchandise is a donation with something to show for it. A jersey. A t-shirt. A cap. A mug. Each purchase funds a surgery for someone who needs it.
No event, no merchandise — just a direct contribution to the programme. Every amount makes a difference, and all donations are tax-exempt under Section 80G (old tax regime).
To continue our mission, we are launching the “Back in the Game Fundraiser” with a goal to raise INR 2,50,000
This amount will help fund several more surgeries, transforming lives and enabling patients to get back in the game of life
Every piece of GivingBack merchandise is made for athletes, designed around a cause, and funded by people who believe sport and purpose belong together.
Your donation, no matter the amount, makes a huge impact. We have created two special donation tiers to show our appreciation.
INR 2,500: Receive a customized GivingBack T-shirt
INR 5,000: Receive a specially customized jersey, identical to the one Dr. Arvind Bhateja wears during his cycling races to raise funds
Every contribution counts, and every donor will receive a tax-exemption certificate under section 80G of the Indian Income Tax (old regime).
