Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm running my first London half marathon in support of Rasa Schools Foundation, a UK Charity that supports the development of schools in Rural Zimbabwe. Those who know me, will know that i'm not a runner and the only running competition I've done is a 5k city run.

Born in Zimbabwe and being passionate about education, this cause is particularly close to my heart. It is heart breaking to know that in the 21st century there are still many children learning under trees and reading in under candle light.

Last year, this charity complete rebuilding a large classroom block that had been destroyed after a cyclone.

This year, the Charity is looking to raise funds to build a solar powered computer centre for the students. I probably spend more than 10 hours each day on a computer and the fact majority of students in this area will complete high school without ever seeing a computer is unbelievable.

Your contribution will go a long way in enhancing the education of these children. Like Nelson Mandela once said ‘Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.’
