Takat Gets Involved in the Fight to Keep Kids Fit
Takat Jewels is one of the presenting sponsors of the Floyd Mayweather Jr. Foundation’s “Fight 4 Fitness” event scheduled to take place in Las Vegas on Sunday.
Las Vegas--Colored gemstone company Takat Jewels is getting involved in the fight to keep kids, particularly youth in urban areas, fit.
The 2nd annual “Fight 4 Fitness” 5K race, 2K walk, kids’ fun run and community day is scheduled to take place on Sunday at Sunset Park in Las Vegas and is presented by the Floyd Mayweather Jr. Foundation, the charity started by the boxing champion to help underprivileged children in the Las Vegas area.
Takat Jewels is among the event’s presenting sponsors, along with Mayweather Promotions and The Money Team. Showtime is the supporting sponsor.
The purpose of Fight 4 Fitness race, walk and community day is to promote a fit and healthy lifestyle for youth in urban areas.
In addition to the races, the afternoon will include food, music, games, raffle prizes, live music, free Zumba sessions from Zumba Las Vegas and the chance to meet, get autographs, take pictures, and step inside a boxing ring to learn a few tricks of the trade from Mayweather Promotions’ stars.
“Takat Jewels is excited to partner with the Floyd Mayweather Jr. Foundation and become the presenting sponsor of the Fight 4 Fitness weekend,” said Rayaz Takat, CEO of Takat Jewels. “Takat Jewels takes pride in providing opportunities and inspiration for urban youth to succeed, and we are looking forward to an exciting, fun and inspiring weekend for everyone participating.”
Takat’s grandfather, Haji Nisar Ahmed Takat, who was descended from an ancient Indian family of precious stone craftsman, opened his first cutting and polishing business in Jaipur, India in 1955.
Today, Takat Jewels is still family-owned and operated, with offices in India, Hong Kong Thailand and New York.
