Why Run For Able Child Africa?
The London Marathon is a fantastic fundraiser for us, with our 2023 runners collectively raising over £70,000! We value each and every marathon runner who chooses to fundraise for Able Child Africa. You’ll receive the following support and resources.
- Your own branded Able Child Africa running vest
- Regular communications from our fundraising team with ideas for events and information about our work
- A dedicated Able Child Africa contact who will provide you with unlimited support
- An Able Child Africa cheering squad on the day
- The knowledge that you are supporting an organisation in 2022 alone directly supported 705 children and young people with disabilities in Africa, trained 175 teachers in inclusive teaching methods, supported 1,064 parents of children with disabilities, and worked with 128 government officials and ministers advocating for improvements in disability inclusion at a local and national level.
I felt incredibly supported from the very first e-mail confirming my place running for Able Child Africa. The team at Able Child Africa were in constant contact throughout the process, offering help, encouragement and kind words. I never felt alone. My whole experience was just amazing.
