Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. For anyone that knows me I'm not a very sporty person, but I am passionate about justice and seeing people live lives free from poverty. There are 1.4 billion people living in extreme poverty in our world - 1.4 billion people going to bed hungry every day - this is not a reality I am willing to accept in a world of plenty.

Last year I visited some of Christian Aid's partners in Brazil, they are doing amazing work. I met MST (The Landless People's Movement), they've lifted 1.5 million people out of poverty in the last 25 years alone. I want to see more of this transformation, and so that is why I am taking on the crazy challenge of the London Marathon to raise money for Christian Aid. I'd love it if you would join me in the challenge by sponsoring me.

Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.Thank you so much. Jess :)
