Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. We will be doing our first ever ‘Ultra Walk’ in Lebanon in May to raise funding and awareness for refugees fleeing Syria and Iraq. It is estimated that 1 in 4 people in Lebanon are refugees. An estimated 1Million Syrian refugees have fled there, not counting those refugees from Iraq. Almost half of these are children, ripped away from home, school, friends and sometimes family. We want to personally meet the refugees and try help where we can. We want to let them know that the world has not forgotten about them and they are loved. The war and bombings in Syria and Iraq continue and the refugees need our help.
