We are going to be raising funds for the Aga Khan Foundation (AKF).The 10km Partnership Walk & Run 2009 is taking place on Sunday 19 July in Regents Park. All of the costs of this year's event have been underwritten so all sponsorship monies and funds raised on the day will go towards the three projects we are supporting in Health, Education and Rural Development in India, the Kyrgyz Republic and Madagascar. See below for more info.

"There will never be peace on earth..... until there is peace between the religions."

The Aga Khan Foundation (AKF), the event organisers, do not use faith, race, gender etc. to discriminate against who benefits from their projects, which is the philosophy that unites this team. 

Partnerships are one of the UK Millennium Development Goals, and Partnerships between those of different faiths, and of none, play a pivotal role. It is in this spirit, and in the spirit of Nishkam, that we, as a small group of people from different faiths and of none, want to show our support for our brothers and sisters.  (Nishkam means serving others without any want, or expectation of anything in return - i.e. serving for the sake of serving.)
