Hi folks :)
Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.
On 12 October I will be running the Royal Parks Half Marathon for Starfish Greathearts Foundation, a charity that are doing amazing work to support children of all ages who have been affected or orphaned by HIV/Aids in South Africa. My fundraising target is only £300 which (due to an unbelievable exchange rate) will make a huge difference to the children Starfish cares for! You can download a brochure here (https://www.starfishcharity.org/media/75706/web.pdf) that will tell you more about what they do.
The money raised from the run will help fund the newly launched Starfish Wellness Wagon; a mobile testing clinic that provides vital healthcare to children in rural communities. The nurse tests children for HIV, TB and diabetes, provides treatment and follow up visits to monitor their progress. Early diagnosis dramatically increases the quality of children’s lives and good nutrition improves concentration and school attendance.
