Running for a cause

In order to give my running experience through the Moroccan desert a further meaning - apart from the joy and satisfaction giving back to me - I have committed myself with a fundraising campaign for clean drinking water for children and their families in Africa. The donated amount was used for the realization of water projects, wells with clean drinking water and sanitary facilities. I entrusted the realization of these projects to Plan International Switzerland, a children's charity with whom I have been working for several years. Specifically, the money raised was used to build a well for clean drinking water in the village of Liati Dafornu (Volta Region) in Ghana. The project includes the drilling of a well, the construction of hand pumps and the training of the local population. 

 

Children in Africa suffer greatly and often die from polluted drinking water. Any donation, large or small, is welcome and can have a direct impact.

 

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have supported my project.
