Friends, 

Thank you for your generous support. On 13 October, I am taking on the Royal Parks Half Marathon in London running 13.1 miles to raise much needed funds for Farm Africa.

Farm Africa is a charity that reduces poverty in East Africa, by unleashing farmers' abilities to grow their incomes in an environmentally sustainable way.

Today, almost half of the world’s extreme poor live in sub-Saharan Africa. The vast majority work in agriculture...

Working in DR Congo, Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, Farm Africa reduces poverty by helping farmers grow more, sell more and sell for more. Farm Africa works with these farmers to adapt to Climate Change, with long-term planning on how to deal with climate shocks, flooding & drought.

How your donation could help:

€6 could help to buy 10kg of forage seeds, so that farmers can grow food for their livestock
€13 could help to buy a high quality goat
€18 could help to pay for a farmer to hire help to bring in his harvest
€24 could help to establish a forest products enterprise
€56 could help to provide a farmer with the means to start a beekeeping business, including a hive, beekeeping equipment and a bee colony
€140 could help to buy a horse, for help transporting coffee harvests

Sincere thanks for your support.
