My Story

I am not a runner, not in the best shape and could find so many more excuses but this is important. In the life lottery I was quite lucky, my 1st school was only 5 min away from home, I had great teachers and resources. First among my siblings to get an undergrad degree and  two masters. I was fortunate to get multiple scholarships and opportunities to study.  When I lost my husband and become a single parent to two small children my skills and knowledge helped me manage complex issues, move across continents and set up new roots and provide for my family. My children are going to school , have wonderful teachers and caregivers but for many children attending school, dreaming a better future is not in the cards. Conflict and poverty are just two barriers that rob them of the opportunity to go to school and the  hope in a better future.

So... no excuses. I choose to participate because I believe supporting children access to education is  key to a future full of hope and possibilities for all. I hope I can count on your support!
