San Francisco Marathon, baby!





Alright, ladies and gentleman! It is all going down on August 3rd, 2008 in San Francisco, California. We are running a marathon in the name of Engeye! What does that mean? That means that we are gonna run through the hills of San Francisco, knowing that each step we take will literally bring us one step closer towards our goal of helping the Engeye Health Clinic in rural Uganda become self-sustaining. We are so close. We can do it. And you are welcome to run with us or support us from the sidelines ;)

It is truly amazing what one dollar can do in Uganda. One dollar can help treat a baby dying from malaria. One dollar can provide life-saving nutrients to a child suffering from malnutrition. One dollar can help provide protective shoes and clothing for a woman who would otherwise have no other source of help. One dollar can plant the seed of hope that can potentially mean the difference between life and death for the people of Ddegeya Village, Uganda. Imagine what 20 dollars could do? Or even more?

More importantly than this, even, is our desire to raise awareness for people who are not able to advocate for themselves. We are representatives of the people of Ddegeya Village, Uganda, and we are devoted to seeing these people thrive in health and happiness. We are in the thick of this journey and we invite you to join our crusade. Walk (or run) with us.
