Fundraising for Naked Heart Foundation
Story
The team of the Naked Heart Foundation are putting every effort in drawing attention to the problem of kids with special needs in Russia and raising money in all kinds of ways for all sorts of projects in order to change the attitude of the society and the state towards such kids and their families, and to transform their existence into a truly happy, fulfilled and independent life. I believe, that this is a very important job that they are doing and am trying to support them where possible.
One of the projects is the Paris Half-Marathon which I am taking part in in order to raise money for a summer camp for kinds with autism in Russia (project called "Summer with Purpose"). I know, that the more money I raise the more kids will be able to attend the summer camp in 2017. And their lives after this experience will never be the same (without exaggerating). Their families will feel happiness, joy and SUPPORT from outside (which normally happens very rarely, because families with disabled kids are considered inferior).
Any amount which is donated counts and i'm sure every donor will feel proud of him/herself. Therefore, I encourage every person to support me and the running team by donating, even if it is a 10$ donation - it can still bring significant change to those in need.
