5km Fundraiser for a New Eusebia Hope Centre Dormitory

Raising money for Eusebia Hope Foundation

Eusebia Karega lived in Igoji, a village in Kenya. In 2004, she decided to help the growing number of children in her village who had been abandoned or orphaned, often as a result of HIV/ Aids. Every day, after her long shift as a midwife, Eusebia went home to cook for the children waiting at her door. Eusebia died in 2013, but her work continues. It is led in Kenya by her mother, Teresa, and in the UK by her daughter, Christine. The Eusebia Hope Foundation (EHF) is the UK charity supporting this provision of unconditional help for the children. It is run by a group of people, who share Eusebia’s belief in the African proverb: ‘It takes a whole village to raise a child’.

Story

On March 1st, 20 Eusebia Hope Trustees, Volunteers & Supporters moved themselves (at varying paces!) 5km to raise funds for a new dormitory for the 50 children in our care. This will replace a now very shabby tin building, improving all round health and wellbeing.

If you are able to support these brave souls, please dig deep and help us build a safe and comfortable sleeping space.

Thank you Christine, Samantha & Natasha Black & friends, Susie & Imo Brain, Gary, Louise & Ava Dubell, Tim, Charlotte, Cesca & Alfred Dunn, Fi & David Fogelman, Lucia Hawley, Clare Khan, Jenn Mahon, Tunde & Emma Modra Swain & Leila, Lynne Norris, Alison Park, Zory Radney-Florian, Deborah Sherry, Alice Stuart & Rebecca Townsend!

So every penny goes to the children who need it, you might want to custom set the justgiving donation fee rather than letting it default. Email the charity directly on eusebiahope@gmail.com if you plan a larger donation and want to ensure it's cost effective.
