We have decided to take part in a half marathon to raise awareness for challenges children and women face in war torn areas.

The main issue that struck us was the horrific sexual and phycological abuse women face. As teenage girls it's difficult for us to even imagine the fear and suffering women in these areas endure. Every day, countless individuals bear the brunt of war’s devastation and we want to do as much as we can to help.

Your donation will...

Provide official qualifications approved by the ministry of education for children and adults to maximise chances of employment.

Help provide childcare services that give mothers the freedom to take part in training courses to improve their future prospects.

Give access to clean water, food, sanitation, medical treatment, shelter, blankets and clothing to people living in these areas. This happens on a long-term basis until assistance is no longer required.

Contribute to the training of females to become qualified as doctors. This gives them a job but also provides help to young girls during puberty and for pregnant women from other women so they can feel confident and safe.
