Organiser's description

Save Them One by One is a small mission group who has a passion for Missions and Sharing the Love of Jesus Christ. We have a huge love for the people of Nicaragua. In 2008, Save them One by One started a Child School Sponsorship program in which we help poverty-stricken children with the opportunity to attend school to receive an education. In Nicaragua, students must have the proper school uniform to attend school. Unfortunately for many students living in remote villages of Nicaragua, this becomes a major roadblock to attending school. Thankfully, every year, with your support, we are able to provide school uniforms, backpacks and shoes to elementary school students from the most remote villages of Nicaragua. We currently have over 2500 children in our school sponsorship program, many of those children are in need of a sponsor. A one-time $25 provides a child with their government required school uniform, socks, shoes, backpack and basic school supplies. Our ministry is filled with many other life changing projects.

Please consider joining us on June 8th for a 5K Walk/Run to help raise money for the many needs to keep Save them One by One serving those of Nicaragua.
