We provide free education to slum kids to help lift them out of poverty.

Story

Child of Hope are based in Eastern Uganda and support the children and families of a slum area to receive education, healthcare and nutrition.  I visited them in 2011 (see the short film - it's the best welcome song ever!) and worked indirectly with them for three years on an international leadership program, so I have seen first hand the amazing work they do on a day to day basis and also the developments they are making that positively impact upon the community they are based in.

 The difference to lives they make is massive - a whole generation of children born into the most challenging situations, now have hope in building their future, and aspirations, big dreams - what greater gift is there to give.

 Please join me in supporting them - I'm going to be running not only to challenge myself but contribute to the work of an inspirational charity.
