Story


🌎  MILES 4 SMILES 2022: Around the globe in 30 days 🌎 

Hey everyone!

Refugees often are forced to travel hundreds of miles on foot to reach safety - which may not even be guaranteed.

Many of you will be familiar with the really popular Miles4Smiles challenge that RCF did in December 2020. They had over 100 volunteers fundraise 42k and collectively covered a distance of 8775 miles!

This November they will be doing the same challenge but with an ambitious twist! 😲  By collectively walking, running, cycling and swimming we are aiming to cover the circumference of planet 🌎 ( just a mere 24900 miles!)..no pressure! It has never been done before by a charity so we are hoping to *make history* with this challenge.

We, Shayma & Essra, will be combining forces this month to cover a portion of this distance; we pledge to cover 240miles minimum between us 💪🏼

This year, the charity have chosen to split the donations over two causes. 50% of donations will go towards ongoing RCF projects such as running the permanent dental clinic in Bangladesh and funding our learning centre. The other 50% will go towards rebuilding schools affected by the Pakistan floods with the help of our implementation partners on the ground *Action For Humanity.* 

 *The charity have a 100% donation policy. A portion of gift aid will be used to cover admin costs.* 

We would be super grateful if you could support us and the charity by donating and/or sharing if you can 🙏🏼

Thanks as always for your support  🤍

Wish us luck!
