Flora London Marathon 2009 · 26 April 2009 ·

We are an international organisation working to build a prosperous rural Africa. We help farmers to increase their harvests, build their incomes and sustain natural resources, partnering with governments and the private sector to find effective ways to fight poverty.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.

Being part of Farm Africa's pom pom waving cheerleading squad last year and watching so many amazing people completing the marathon in order to help those less fortunate than themselves inspired me to sign up for the challenge myself.

Over 80% of people in eastern Africa  live a hand to mouth existance growing what little food they can on the arid land around them.  By sponsoring me you will be helping FARM-Africa work directly with some of the poorest communities, providing these people with the seeds and tools they need to to provide a brighter and more prosperous future, free from a reliance on hand outs and food aid.


Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: FARM-Africa gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please dig deep and sponsor me now!
