Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
ChallengeAid - a Carmarthenshire-based Charity - was established in 2005 to help disadvantaged children who live in appalling conditions in the developing world. It gives aspirational young people the opportunity to succeed and escape a lifetime of poverty.
Since inception, it has worked with 1,300 UK schools and 220,000 pupils to raise more than £200,000 for a range of important projects in the developing world. Through various fundraising events, centralised around exercise, ChallengeAid promotes fitness in UK schools, whilst encouraging pupils to help children less fortunate than themselves overseas.
As a local Member of Parliament, I'm pleased to support ChallengeAid and look forward to running the Royal Parks Half Marathon in support of the great work the charity undertakes.

Diolch yn fawr am ymweld â fy nhudalen JustGiving.
Sefydlwyd ChallengeAid- elusen a leolwyd yn Sir Gaerfyrddin- yn 2005 er mwyn cynorthwyo plant amddifadus sy’n byw mewn amodau ofnadwy yn y byd datblygedig. Mae’n darparu cyfleoedd i bobl ifanc uchelgeisiol i lwyddo a dianc rhag oes o dlodi.
Ers ei sefydlu, mae wedi gweithio gyda 1,300 o ysgolion yn y DU a 220,000 o ddisgyblion i godi mwy na £200,000 ar gyfer nifer o brosiectau hollbwysig yn y byd datblygedig. Trwy nifer o ddigwyddiadau codi arian- yn ymwneud â chadw’n heini- hyba ChallengeAid iechyd corfforol yn ysgolion y DU, wrth annog y disgyblion i gynorthwyo plant o dramor sy’n llai ffodus na hwy eu hunain.
Fel Aelod Seneddol lleol, rwy’n falch i gefnogi ChallengeAid ac rwy’n edrych ymlaen at redeg Hanner Marathon Royal Parks er mwyn cefnogi gwaith ardderchog yr elusen hon.
