This year I will be participating for the second time in the Great Manchester 10K Run to raise funds for homeless, orphaned and deprived children in partnership with the InnerCity Mission on the Back to School Campaign.

Most indigent children cannot afford to go to school and many who started are forced to drop out due to lack of funds. The InnerCity Mission Back to School campaign was launched to raise funds to get deprived, vulnerable and excluded children enrolled into school. Through this initiative, they help them get "Back to School" by paying their school fees and providing them with Back to School Kits. This year 2018, the campaign is geared towards enrolling 10,000 kids who were forced to drop out of school due to poverty or have never had the opportunity to attend school

In addition, the InnerCity Mission will upgrade school facilities and provide learning supplies to identified schools in inner-city communities where we work. This will improve the quality of education that these children receive.
