100km Challenge for July 2020, 31 July 2020
We raise awareness and funds to combat the causes of homelessness

Story

Many of us have found or renewed our love for running during the lockdown, however I find I sometimes lack the motivation to get out, therefore I have decided to challenge myself to run 100km through July and I'm asking you all to sponsor me so we can raise some money for a good cause.

Have you ever wondered what it might be like to be homeless during a pandemic? Sleeping on the streets with a deadly virus potentially all around you? Not having the comfort of being locked in your warm, safe, clean house?

The Fine & Country Foundation are dedicated to battling the causes of homelessness and aiding those who are affected by it. I would like to try and raise £300, many of you will know that homelessness is very prevalent in Cambridge & your donations will go to local homeless charities Jimmy’s & WinterComfort.

About the charity

The Fine & Country Foundation has been created to help combat one of the largest social issues in the UK – homelessness. Last year, the Government estimated around 2,414 people sleep on the street on any one night across England, a rise of 36% over three years. Often the reasons for homelessness are misunderstood, with many blaming the individuals for poor life decisions and carelessness. The reality is: people become homeless for a whole range of complex and overlapping reasons that cannot be avoided, such as family breakdowns, mental or physical health problems or debts. Solving homelessness does not only involve putting a roof over people’s heads, it is also trying to tackle the root of the problem and asking the question: why did they became homeless in the first place? The Fine & Country Foundation is dedicated to bringing together all Fine & Country agents in over 300 locations worldwide to raise awareness of the causes of homelessness whilst supporting homeless charities.
