Helllloooooooo!!!

As many of you know I, together with a team of other volunteers, will be heading to Nigeria for 4 weeks this summer. So I have decided to start this page and run (or walk quickly) 10K in the Lisburn Marathon as a means of raising money.
Here is a little more about what we plan to do in August:

Because poverty remains significant in Nigeria (with over a third of the population struggling to make ends meet) access to the bare necessities continues to be slim. With the rise of aids more and more children are being left without parents forcing them to fend for themselves, and often on the streets. The Christian projects, that we will be working with, support these vulnerable children who have been so devastated by the harsh realities of extreme poverty and illness. During our 4 weeks, we will be working closely with the local Nigerian community. Building relationships, putting on events and supporting the community in anyway possible.
Your kind donations and support will help to make all this achievable, and make that 10K seem like a breeze <3

Thank you for taking the time to read my page and for all your support.
