My Story…
Hi, I’m Lucy. This will be my third time doing the 5k marathon with my grandparents, Merylie and Jim, and my cousins Penelope and Charlotte. And this year my brother Milo and cousin Simon have joined Team Houston to help raise money to support the refugees being sponsored by the Holy Trinity Refugee Committee. Thank you so much for any amount you are able to donate to help me meet my goal.
Description
Our Refugee Committee invites you run or walk to support newly arrived refugees. Since 1991, we have sponsored and provided financial and moral support to around 135 refugees fleeing persecution in countries such as Afghanistan, Colombia, El Salvador, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Iran, Iraq and Rwanda. Today, they are making positive contributions to our society, both economically and socially.
We are currently sponsoring a woman from Iraq and are expecting a man from Eritrea this year. We need your help raising funds so that we may support them. If you raise over $1000.00, we will reimburse your registration fees.
