Yogyakarta, 4 February 2023 – In commemoration of World Cancer Day 2023, Re.juve held a community fun run in collaboration with Indo Runners Yogyakarta under the theme “Standing Together to #LiveHappier.” The event also marked the opening of Re.juve’s second store in Yogyakarta, located at Plaza Ambarrukmo.
“After receiving a very positive response at the opening of our first outlet at Pakuwon Mall Yogyakarta in December 2022, we are excited to begin 2023 by opening our 86th store nationwide at Plaza Ambarrukmo. This expansion reflects our commitment to making Re.juve products more accessible, helping more people live happier and healthier lives through honest, healthy, and delicious food and beverages. Commemorating World Cancer Day with this initiative is the right moment for us to make a meaningful contribution to the people of Yogyakarta,” said Richard Anthony, CEO & President Director of Re.juve.
The World Cancer Day campaign serves as a global reminder of the importance of maintaining health. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, with an estimated 20 million new cases and 10 million deaths in 2021.
Representing the local running community, Robertus Indra, Chairman of Indo Runners Yogyakarta, highlighted the impact of the collaboration:
“We are delighted to partner with Re.juve for this fun run. This activity is a breakthrough to raise public awareness about making wiser food and beverage choices. For those of us who are active, Re.juve provides practical and nutritious solutions that support both our hobbies and our health.”
To complement the fun run, Re.juve also hosted a health talk titled “Standing Together to #LiveHappier” with dr. Noviani, SpGK (clinical nutrition specialist) and Richard Anthony. The session discussed the role of nutrition in reducing cancer risk.
“Fruits and vegetables are rich in antioxidants, vitamin C, and beta-carotene. Research shows that regular consumption helps lower cancer risk, as phytochemicals protect cells from harmful compounds and prevent damage or mutations,” explained dr. Noviani.
Closing the event, Richard Anthony reaffirmed Re.juve’s mission:
“Through this activity and our store expansion in Yogyakarta, we hope more people become aware and wiser in choosing nutritious food and beverages to prevent diseases such as cancer. We are committed to continuing similar initiatives in Yogyakarta and other cities across Indonesia, encouraging a balanced lifestyle through healthy eating and active living.”
