Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running the Great North Run for Team Kenya, because like them, I believe...

Girls can change the world

Given the chance, girls can play a critical role in solving the most persistent development problems facing the world today. By investing in girls’ education, preventing early marriage and teen pregnancy, issues such as HIV and AIDS can be resolved and the cycle of poverty can be broken. It’s not about prioritising girls over boys (in fact, we do lots of work with boys and men in the community), it’s about working with all members of the community to level the playing field and tackle inequality.

Any donation would be greatly appreciated as is your support.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
