Heart for Africa
Team Running for Shelter in Swaziland
We have a reason to run…actually, 2,000 reasons!
There are 200,000 orphans in Swaziland today who are struggling to survive having lost their parents due to HIV/AIDS and there are 8,000 new orphans each month. We are running to raise funds for Celebrate Litsemba, a one day event that will provide food, water, shoes, blankets, medical care and much more.
