Organiser's description

Lory, Milot is a village in Northern Haiti home to 3,500 people. 31% of the population in Lory is food insecure and we are working hard to change that through our Village Farmstand Project. Over the last two years, we have been able to accomplish some great things with your support. We ask that you continue to help us, minister, to this area of Haiti.

This year's run will help us to continue to support our growers so we can end food insecurity in Lory and we need to raise $10,000 to cover upcoming project costs for 2023.

I will personally be running a half marathon on February 17th for our Annual Run for Lory, Milot. I am asking that you join me while I train by signing up for the virtual run or just by donating directly to the cause. Together we can change the world. Thanks for helping us work towards sustainable futures for families in Haiti.
