£30 could send a child to school for a whole year.

£60 could provide a mother with a business grant, helping her afford school fees for her children to attend school.

£90 could provide learning materials to a whole classroom of students.

£300 could train a teacher and improve teaching quality.

Street Child is a charity that supports 1,000's of children across the world to find safety + education. I'm running a marathon in Sierra Leone to help raise funds to support their work.

The charity was started by a few Norwich locals.

Since 2008, Street Child has supported :

91,057,534+ children into education

157,929 families to set up businesses so they can afford the cost of educating their children long-term.

WHERE IS SIERRA LEONE ?

TEMPERATURE = HOT

HUMIDITY = HIGH

SUITABILITY FOR RUNNING = DIFFICULT FOR NORFOLK FOLK

----------------

Street Child's first project was in rural Sierra Leone. They now work in 25 countries worldwide.

Street Child's purpose is to see all children safe, in school and learning - even, and especially, in low-resource environments and emergencies.

This marathon in Sierra Leone is an opportunity to witness their projects in the rural communities, run an epic race, and raise funds so that the work can continue.

Peace !
