Ready to run for Venezuela!

If you have me in any social media network, you probably know that I love to run. Whether it's cold in London, super hot in Spain or Portugal or tireless in the gym, running is by far my favourite sport and I am improving myself in it every single day.

A couple of weeks ago I received the opportunity to sign up to fund-raise for my home country, Venezuela. I will be running the Vitality 10000 race in London on the 28th May and hopefully, with your support, I will be completing the 10K with a personal record never imagined by me before: I am aiming for 10K in 53 minutes or less.

As a reward for your support, Healing Venezuela will help:

1. Sending medical supplies to hospitals and other venezuelan NGOs

2. Implementing mental health programmes in Venezuela

3. Sponsoring High Spec HIV and Cancer lab test in-country

A once thriving country sitting on the world’s largest oil reserves, Venezuela has suffered a precipitous decline over the past two decades. There are drastic shortages of both food and medicines and diseases such as diphtheria and malaria are re-emerging. State hospitals, in particular, are suffering because of lack of maintenance and scarcity of medical supplies.
