Virgin London Marathon 2010 · 25 April 2010 ·

SUNARMA (Sustainable Natural Resource Management Association) was founded in Ethiopia. We improve health, food security and income for rural families who never thought they would receive help. By improving agriculture, providing clean water and building enterprise we provide a hopeful future.

Story

I am running the London Marathon 2010 for the second time, this time for an Ethiopian based charity called SUNARMA which helps bring sustainable solutions to Ethiopia's poorest most rural communities. 

SUNARMA has many projects on the go at the moment, I am particularly aiming to raise money for a project started in early 2010 within the Wuchale Jidda woredas, this programme aims to deal with the difficulties presented by Climate Change as seasonal rains increasingly often fail leading to crop failures, water shortages and livestock deaths.Sunarma are working with local people supplying tools, materials and expert knowhow to enable local project members to build hand dug wells, set up micro-irrigation and capped springs for village drinking water. 

Ethiopia is among one of the ten poorest countries in the world, so however much you can spare, will be put to life changing use. Thank you all very much for your support
