Chicago Marathon 2012 · 7 October 2012 ·

The Congregation of the Holy Spirit and Immaculate Heart of Mary, British Province is part of an international missionary organisation within the Catholic Church, but with an independent authority and structure. It has branches in over sixty countries on six continents.

Story

The Growing Together Project is a partnership between Revive (an organisation that supports refugees and asylum seekers, and part of The Holy Ghost Fathers Charity) and The HEAP (Highfield Eco-Allotment Project) ALL donations through this page will go directly to The Growing Together Project.

Every Tuesday, come rain or shine, you’ll find a dedicated crew of gardeners on the Heap working to produce something unique. It is a warm, welcoming and supportive community which tends to the project allotment. No matter what is going on in their lives, these gardeners come week after week; they keep smiling week after week; they bring joy, laughter and song week after week.

Growing Together provides refugees and asylum seekers the opportunity to be part of a project, apply themselves to something meaningful and give something back to their community. It is a much needed support network for one of the most marginalised groups in our society.

Our participants give so much when they have so little; that’s why I turn up every Tuesday, and that’s why I am dedicated my run to these people and raising money to keep the project running.

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING ME!
