What is RunForGambia<\/em>?<\/strong><\/p>\n

A 424 kilometre running expedition across the West African nation of The Gambia in conditions of high heat & humidity. \u00a0It will take place in June 2014.<\/p>\n

The run starts in the rural community of Koina on The Gambia\u2019s Eastern border with Senegal and ends in the capital city of Banjul by the Atlantic Ocean.<\/p>\n

Why?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

To raise funds to keep children alive through health education programs.<\/p>\n

Your support helps the Nova Scotia Gambia Association (NSGA) deliver life-saving education and training programs that teach Gambian communities about HIV\/AIDS, malaria, sexual\u00a0health, maternal health, gender equity and human rights, youth leadership, water sanitation, and land mine safety and awareness.<\/p>\n

Who is running?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Terry SanCartier of Ottawa-Gatineau. \u00a0He will be accompanied by a team of three gambians.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy reason for doing this run is to draw attention to the cause.\u201d Says Terry. \u00a0\u201cduring my run through the Gambia, I will meet people who will want to hear about why I am doing this. \u00a0I will help the NSGA spread the word about health education to small communities across the country & to raise awareness for healthier habits.\u201d \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cRunning is an activity that promotes good physical & mental health. \u00a0It shows young people what one can accomplish with hard work & commitment. \u00a0Anything is possible! Even something as crazy as running across a whole country in incredible heat & humidity!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
