My Story…

Hi friends! I have been supporting the Urban Promise organization for several years and have seen the amazing impact they have over the children and families living in Toronto Community Housing. I'm proud to be running this 5K race (albeit virtually) in support of Urban Promise Toronto for the second year. I hope you will join me in support! Here are details about this wonderful charity organization which works directly with kids from low-income families. https://www.urbanpromise.com/what-we-do/

Description

Children living in Toronto Community Housing want what any kid wants...

>To be known, accepted and valued.

>To become just like their role models.

>To dream.


They're up against some tough realities...

>material poverty

>lack of resources

>destructive cycles

>broken families

>lure of drugs

>threat of violence


Which can make them feel unworthy, defeated, angry, hopeless.

BUT EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE HOPE, AND EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO KNOW JESUS-THE AUTHOR OF HOPE ITSELF.

Join The Run for Promise Team - Raise funds supporting programs where children are known, accepted and valued by positive role models, providing opportunities to dream.
