Bollywood actress Dia Mirza has often been in news for philanthropy work. Continuing her good work, the actress has confirmed that she will be participating in an upcoming Mumbai Marathon with Zarina and Ronnie Screwvala in support of an NGO that they run.

For the same NGO, she walked the ramp earlier this year. And now she is all set to take on the road to garner funds. She will take part in the Dream Run in the 2015 edition of the annual event in support of the Screwvalas' NGO, the Swades Foundation.

"I admire what Zarina and Ronnie are doing with Swades. They are perfect examples of citizens who give back to society and contribute to nation building. Their distinct goals and the efforts being made to achieve these are admirable and inspiring. I'm grateful for this opportunity, and I hope that together we can draw more people into our mission objective," she said.

She is associated with the foundation this time, to help raise funds for better education and sanitation facilities for those residing in rural areas of India.
