Eh’up! Ta very much for visiting our team fundraising page.
We are a team of 7 folks, of varying degrees of fitness, who have never done something like this before, brought together by a common desire to get wet and sweaty in a field in Yorkshire. We are also trying to raise vitally needed fund for a small charity which is working to change the lives of some of the world’s most vulnerable people in Kenya. Using simple, sensible interventions, that often go overlooked, Eating Stones Fund is improving access to healthcare for people living in rural Kenya.
The effective delivery of healthcare is vital if vulnerable communities are to thrive. Eating Stones Fund work to support the training and education of vitally important nurses in rural communities in Kenya. They also work to support the development of more effective healthcare systems in some of the world’s most challenging environments. By providing nurses with the education needed to care for their communities in Kenya their impact will be far reaching and the value so much greater than the cost of the school fees.
The impact that a trained nurse can have on their community in Kenya is huge. It is so much more than just a job for one person. The work that they do, caring for their community will have an immeasurably large reach and change the lives of countless vulnerable people. Nurses in Kenya are carers, educators, medics, pharmacists, nutritionists, shoulders to cry on, supporters, friends, confidants and often the glue in a community. Help Eating Stones help these communities.
