ActionAid works with courageous women and girls who are championing change, challenging inequality, and leading their communities towards a more equal, fair, and just future. We back the women’s rights organisations they lead and take action to challenge harmful societal norms and unfair systems.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm running the 2013 London Marathon raising money for Lera Town School in Ethiopia. I visited Lera Town in 2010 as part of a trip to see the work of Vicky's Water Project and ActionAid. Vicky's Water Project was set up in the memory of my friend Vicky Buchanan who died in 2006. The Water Project has brought clean water to the whole community of Lera Town. The next challenge is to ensure the local kids have a school that can cater for all of them, so ActionAid plans to build 4 more classrooms.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
