I’m running the perimeter of Rwanda alongside other students from Team Rwanda to raise money for Azizi Life. As a team, we’ll be covering 930 km, tracking every kilometre along the way!
You can follow my progress on Strava below to see how much I’ve completed so far, and follow the run4azizi Instagram page for updates throughout the challenge: https://www.instagram.com/run4azizi?igsh=YWV3ZzN0M2RtbzBv
As part of the University of Manchester's commitment to providing meaningful volunteering opportunities and promoting social responsibility overseas, Team Rwanda is an international volunteering project exclusively for university students.
Azizi Life is a social enterprise based in Rwanda. Azizi Life runs a number of community projects, including supporting local artisans in building more sustainable practices and reaching wider markets, as well as distributing water filters in the local community.
In 2026, Azizi Life are embarking on a Home Building project! Through the Home Building project, Azizi Life are giving families the security, comfort, and dignity of having a home of their own.
This year, Azizi Life are building their first home, with space to eventually construct 12 homes over the next five years.
Thank you for your fundraising!
