Story

I am Andrea Snow a woman with a Running Heart.  In the past 9 years I have regularly participated oncharity marathons, running and triathlon events in various countries around the world, logging over 22,000 km's on the path. Last year I have officially completed my 10th full marathon in Washington D.C. raised 2,500 GBP for Cardiomyopathy U.K. I have also completed my 50th half marathon on June 25th on Hadrian 's Wall U.K., raising 1,213 GBP for the British Heart Foundation both times in the memory of George Michael! Furthermore I have raised over 68 million HUF (over 250,000 GBP) to Team Heart - Seedling Trust in Hungary via charity running, while also donating regulary for targeted projects such as: Comic Relief, Terrence Higgins Trust, Rainbow Trust Children charity, Macmillan Cancer Support, ChildLine, Project Angel Food US via Lovelies.help a charity I support to remember and honor the charity work of the late George Michael.

It is my birthday present this year to support the Point Foundation in Rwanda. My fundraising goal have reached 40% already, thanks to the generosity of many of my dear friends. In my entire life I did voluntary work: I love giving...

I am a regular visitors in Kigali in the heart of Africa and a dedicated person to help the people in Rwanda to create a better future and fulfill their dreams; after the truly horrible time they have suffered in the past. On one of our last visits I have seen the 'Izere Center' in the capital of Rwanda and learned of the Point Foundations 'Outreach Program' one of these programs include disabled children visiting the center with their mothers (sometimes mothers are carrying their children for 2-3 hours on their back, walking) to get to a physiotherapist for a session to help their disadvantaged children to live a better life!

Your small donations can create little miracles like help to build 'papier mache' chairs so diasbled children can sit up comfortably while their mothers are doing other chores; on the other hand generous donation can help to change lives. People in Rwanda are facing some of the difficulties that you and I have never experienced in our entire life.

Our donation is a gift!

Please listen to my favorite song before adding any of your contribution as donation. George Michael: Praying for time: https://youtu.be/goroyZbVdlo
