Story
Hi friends and family,
We're Walking for Islington.
We have joined a team challenge to walk 15,000 KM and raise £15,000 for Islington between August 31, 2025 and October 5, 2025, joining forces with other members of our local church (The Elevation Church London) to raise this fund to mark our 15th (Global) and 4th (London) anniversaries.
In the 35 days between these dates, we commit to walking a total of 300 KM to provide access to opportunities for residents of Islington, giving them real shots at a good life through Islington Giving.
🩵 WHY IT MATTERS TO US
Economic inequality is a real issue for Islington. According to a task force on inequality set up by the Islington Council, "While Islington has some of the wealthiest residents and most expensive properties in the UK, it is also one of the most unequal and deprived boroughs."
As a part of a global movement on a mission to make greatness common, a real shot at a good life sets an Islington resident on the path to a great life.
🫶🏼 HOW CAN YOU HELP?
Every contribution you make here is a part of The Elevation Church's pool of £15,000 donated to Islington Giving, who would deploy the cash to enable an Islington resident to take a step that moves them from deprivation to a better life.
Every pound counts, whether it's £5, £ 15, £100, or £150. Everyone deserves a shot at living well.
Your support = Their opportunity. Join us in making a difference for a few Islington residents.
We thank you in advance for your contributions.
Sincerely,
John & Olamide
