Story

Thank you for visiting my Just Giving page!

On the 13th November this year I will be flying to Ethiopia where I will be spending time visiting and volunteering with the projects supported by Ethiopiaid!

I will assist with and serve the street children's breakfast, volunteer for Hope Enterprises who work tirelessly to help Ethiopians climb from poverty to prosperity through a series of interventions called Ladders of Hope.

I will visit Dignity Period who deliver education
equality for girls and deliver a carefully designed needs-based day of activities, games and play therapy at Cheshire Services rehabilitation centre. 

This will be a life changing experience where I will have the chance to give back, help out with and see first hand the amazing work carried out by Ethiopiaid's partners.

Alongside this, I will be running the Addis Ababa 10K with 40,000 people in Africa's largest road race founded by the legendary Haile Gebreselassie. 
This is a rare opportunity to participate alongside some of Ethiopia's finest athletes in the home of long-distance running. 

Before I go I will be doing a Skydive on Sunday May 12th to raise money for this wonderful cause!

Every little helps to be able to help those less fortunate than ourselves! Thank-you SO much in advance. Katie :)
