I am running a half marathon in support of the Brooke, a unique animal welfare charity, focused on supporting working animals, i.e. donkeys, horses and mules, in some of the world's poorest communities. 

Many families' livelihoods depend on working animals, yet these animals often suffer from overwork, malnutrition, disease, etc. 

The Brooke's team of Veterinary Field Officers all over the world teach owners basic veterinary services, as well as, performing these services on animals in need. They teach communities how to care for their working animals and that a healthier animal means a higher and more sustainable income. 

I will be pushing myself physically the way these working animals are pushed their limits everyday. I hope you will help me support the Brooke by donating what you can.
