2017 Vodafone Malta Marathon · 5 March 2017 ·
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On march 5th I will enjoy 42 km of running in Malta. It is going to be my first marathon run without pain, as the other few ones finished had no previous training. This time will be different and I can't wait to do it. The feeling at the finish line is unique, this is why I became more and more attracted to run long distances. Anyway running a marathon was a "must" in my "bucket list", I encourage everyone to do it.
Moreover I was quite excited when Vodafone Foundation offered me the opportunity to link this event with a fundraising campaign, which is an absolute first for me. We all know the drama that refugees live today and reading everyday news of their sufferings made me get involved and contribute to the 1 million pounds target of money raised in 2017 by Vodafone Foundation.
20 $ provide mats to prevent 2 refugees from sleeping on the ground. 50 $ provide blankets for a family of 5 to keep them warm at night.
Donate and rest assure that you will support needs of people for whom life is not heaven on earth right now.
