What’s it about
On October 21st, I'll be attempting to run the Amsterdam marathon, with Dom Navin-Jones.
The aim is to raise as much money as possible for a charity that I worked for in 2010 in Peru. The charity is Intiwawa, a grassroots charity based in Arequipa in Southern Peru. It is a fantastic organisation that helps improve the prospects of children in impoverished rural areas around Arequipa. The charity relies 100% on the generosity of others, whether through donating time or money to the cause, so any penny, pound, euro, dollar or cent will go directly to helping these kids.
You can find more information on Intiwawa here: www.intiwawa.org
The charity has recently built a Casa Intiwawa - a house where the children can have access to educational, social and health facilities. The funds raised from the marathon will go towards providing these facilities. It really is a great cause, and one that means a lot!
I'd really appreciate anything you can spare..
Thanks

Donation to Intiwawa from Marathon Fundraiser
A. Jamieson published this fundraising event on 14. Juli 2012.
Support Center in Arequipa's Slums (Peru): €1,909.00
Hola/Hello!
I've donated €1,909 raised from the Amsterdam marathon towards the various items needed for Casa Intiwawa. I distributed the money evenly between the books, chairs, cutlery etc, and put €500 for 1 of the new computers. To be honest it isn't so important where the money is spent exactly as I know nothing is wasted at Intiwawa and it will help the children in some way..
Abrazos!
