My Story
Street Child
I (along with brothers Tom and Josh M) going to be running a long way, causing me at least several days worth of pain and suffering.
That is a small price to pay to raise money for such a good charity especially at such a time as this...
This year, like many other NGOs, Street Child has been deeply affected by global aid cuts. Reductions in crucial income streams such as USAID and UK Aid have contributed to a 25% drop in global education funding, leaving countless children without access to school, safety, or hope.
The good news is that Street Child are experts in delivering hope — particularly in the midst of global turbulence. I am getting behind this to support the very least and the lost.
