Event: Free to Run 2021 Virtual Race, from 1 November 2021 to 30 November 2021
With your help, the Free to Run team has successfully evacuated our staff members most at risk from Afghanistan. We are pursuing options for those who remain behind and support those in transit (accommodation, visa support, legal support etc).

Story

The Free to Run team has been through many races, but none like this. The organization is working around the clock on evacuating its Afghan staff and their families to safe locations. They need our support so that they can continue to respond to the rapidly changing circumstances and act quickly - both for the Afghan team and for its broader work supporting female leaders in areas of conflict.

I'm expecting a baby in April 2022, and I pledge to run or walk 20 kilometers per week throughout the entire pregnancy to raise awareness and €1000 EUR support for Free to Run's work. 

What can you do? 

- Join me for a slllooow jog or walk any Saturday/Sunday in Brussels - or virtually from anywhere

- Cheer me along on Strava

- Help me reach €1000 by donating directly here
