Gui's London Marathon '15 for WAR CHILD
Guillaume Pellan is raising money for War Child
Story
Here in Western countries facing the death can happen to each of us, at anytime and anywhere. Sometimes because just you did wrong or a mistake, sometimes because you pushed your limits too far. Unfortunately too many children are facing death on a daily basis in this World only because they born in the wrong country. The main reason? War.
DO YOU REMEMBER THE WAR THAT WAS STARTED BY A CHILD? Neither do I. War means death but also injuries, blood and tears. Too many children have seen horrible things. Their homes, schools, families and communities are torn apart by conflict. Then mental and psychological trauma will be in them for life.
Last June I collapsed at the very end of a Half Marathon. After 1 month in a coma and minus 20kg, thanks to your unforgettable support I started running again and setting up new challenges. This year I decided to prove a lot of things to myself by running the London Marathon, twice the distance but without a time target. To give more meaning to this challenge I decided to team up with War Child UK - a small international charity that protects children from the brutal effects and consequences of war in Central Afric, Syria, Afghanistan.
I have been lucky enough to be surrounded by my amazing family, friends and workmates. So I want to give these kids something and help them as much as I can.
Help me and support War Child UK by donating £10-20 or more via this page.
Thank you so much in advance.
