Help Kathleen raise money

For participating in Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon Virtual Race 2020

My Story…

This is the first time I have entered into a fund raising project on Facebook, but as most of you know I spend my winters in Zihuatanejo where the Covid 19 Virus has wiped out the livelihood of a large segment of an already impoverished society. This fundraiser is to help with their basic needs. Please donate any amount that you can, no amount is too small.

My oldest son Shawn has agreed to accompany me on my 10k walk, he has a personal goal of improving his fitness.  We have decided to do a different trail each day and will walk rain or shine.  I will post daily pictures of the beautiful trails in Kitsap County washington beginning October 1st.5f7958c2a6527.jpeg

Description

For ten years, AMISTAD CANADA (AC) has been working to improve the lives of Mexicans-in-need through health and education Projects delivered in partnership with fourteen Mexican NGOs. 


Projects include: mobile medical-dental service to remote communities; healthy school meals; underwriting medical care for sick and disabled children; supplemental classes in subjects such as literacy, computer skills, English and the arts; primary to post-secondary scholarships; a school for the Deaf; and a therapy centre for children with various disabilities.


AC participation in the Scotiabank Charity Challenge will provide Mexican-Canadians, and other runners who are attached to Mexico, an opportunity to support these initiatives.
