Damo’s #RunForUkraine 1000 Mile Challenge.
On the 24th February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. I want to do something to support the Ukrainian people affected by this unnecessary war.
I want to raise some money to help these poor people who are going through this unimaginable suffering,
My passion is running so I pledge to donate for every mile I run from the 24th February until I reach 1000 miles and also fundraise by asking my friends and family to support me in this challenge.

At least 2 million people have fled their homes to escape the conflict in Ukraine.
Heavy fighting, shelling and air strikes across the country have had devastating consequences for ordinary people. Homes have been destroyed. Families have been separated. Lives have been lost.
At Ukraine’s borders with Poland, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia and Moldova, huge numbers of people are arriving with only what they can carry.
DEC charities and their local partners are in Ukraine and in neighbouring countries providing food, water, shelter and medical assistance.
