Story

Hi! Thanks very much for visiting my page. 

I'm running the 2012 London Marathon for Pratham. It would mean a lot to me if you'd considering sponsoring me - anything will do. 

For those that are keeping track, I was aiming to run the 2010 Marathon for Pratham. However, while training for it I seriously damaged my knee, and have been un able to run since. Fear Not! After a year's physio, I now feel I am in a position to start training again for 2012. I will not give up. 

Pratham was started with the simple goal: Every child in school... and learning well.  Of India’s 210 million children, almost half are unable to read.  AlthoughPratham has helped over 33 million children, there are still more than 80 million children who cannot read or write!

You can help change this fact, and in doing so help create a brighter future. 

“If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.”

Mahatma Gandhi
