Event Details:

On Sunday 2nd July 2023, Abidan will be running the annual Econet Victoria Falls Half Marathon (21km) in support of Catalyst Foundation's S.H.E Programme in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.

Charity Background:

Catalyst Foundation is part of the Catalyst Care Group house of brands and is an independent charity registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales (Registered Charity Number: 1193385).

It’s S.H.E Programme focuses on empowering girl-child education across Africa, by removing the barriers that vulnerable girls in particular face when accessing an education. 

Across Africa, 32.6 million girls of primary and lower secondary school age are out of school. This number rises to 52 million when looking at girls of upper secondary school age.

As a result of not going to school, girls may become victims of: - child abuse, child rape, early child marriages/pregnancies, HIV/AIDS, and the list goes on ...

This is where the Catalyst Foundation comes in and tries to bridge this gap, as they believe that every girl-child has the right to an education!
