Story

Davande in Persian means "Runner". We are a team of eight runners and fund raisers:1) Rafiq R. Ajani, 2) Shayesteh Ghofrani, 3) Hamed Ghofrani, 4) Shahdokht Ziroei, 5) Faezeh Mirshahi, 6) Marjan Esmaili, 7) Nader Farhadi and 8) Rizwan Govindji.

On, Sunday 19th July, we all ran 10 kilometres at the Partnership Walk & Run 2009 held at Gloucester Green, Regent’s Park, London, to raise sponsorship monies for three Aga Khan Foundation projects:
1. Early Childhood Development programme - “Jailoo” Kindergartens in the Kyrgyz Republic
2. Environmental Health Improvement Programme in Gujarat
3. Rice Farming Yield Improvement Programme in Madagascar

These projects have made a real difference to people’s lives, so please give what you can. Any donation – large or small – will help AKF to continue its fantastic work.

Aga Khan Foundation
AKF is a non-denominational, international development agency established in 1967 by His Highness the Aga Khan. Its mission is to develop and promote creative solutions to problems that impede social development, primarily in South and Central Asia and East Africa.

In every undertaking, the AKF’s overriding goal is to assist in the struggle against hunger, disease, illiteracy, ignorance and social exclusion. Central to all these efforts have been inclusive, community-based development approaches, in which local organisations identify, prioritise and implement projects with the Foundation’s assistance. Within this ethos, AKF focuses on four selected issues: health, education, rural development and the strengthening of civil society.

The overheads of AKF are funded by His Highness the Aga Khan and from endowment income. All monies raised therefore go directly towards funding AKF’s programmes.

Many thanks for your support.
