Why We're Doing This

"All funds raised will go directly to Child.org, an organisation dedicated to make pregnancies and births safer by providing life-saving health information, connecting communities with services, and advocating for quality care. Their work focuses on supporting Sustainable Development Goals related to good health and gender equality, primarily by empowering communities in Sub-Saharan Africa to address preventable deaths during pregnancy and the early days of a child's life.

This challenge is a testament to what we can achieve when we come together as a community. It’s about using passion and determination to create positive change.
