My Story

Hello, my name's Tom and I'm fundraising for the Hope Alive Tour in support of Operation Orphan. Operation Orphan's aim is to improve the quality of life for orphans and vulnerable children worldwide, and to provide key elements such as education, health care, spiritual relief and sustainable development to areas that need it most. 

The Hope Alive Tour will consist of the following elements: 

- 7 runners completing a 3 day relay from Hull to Cambridge via Liverpool. Each city is significant to Wilberforce and slavery in the 1800’s.

- Travel to Moldova

- Complete a marathon.

- Engage in 3 days of social action in that country, directly helping the children supported by the charity.

The Tour is a great way to promote the integral strategy of the charity, through creating a greater awareness of the current crisis affecting the area, as well as directly funding the resources necessary to combat the issues that are faced there. I'm hoping to raise £1,500 to support the cause and encourage an awareness of the charity and it's aims to the general public, and i'm using this as an opportunity to complete a personal milestone of performing my first marathon for a charitable cause. Thank you so much for visiting my page, and if you're seaching for more information about the charity please have a look at the following link - http://www.operation-orphan.org/ or you can email me on [email protected]

Thanks again.
