My Challenge:
I’m running across Togo for Compassion, without leaving the UK. For me, this is a challenge that really matters because I’m passionate about the work of Compassion UK in Togo.
I am going to walk, run or cycle, 100km between 1 May & 31 July 2024. I also set a challenge to raise £100.00 and aim to get at least 1 child to be sponsored!
I’m up for the challenge. Will you help me cross the finishing line?

I find enjoyment knowing that I somehow, I helped another person. I believe kindness has a chain reaction and small acts of kindness has great impact.
I have been privileged to start a new life in the United Kingdom. I first came to the UK in 2006, and with the grace of God, I now call the UK my home.
To me, this can only be described as a blessing. Not everyone is as fortunate as I am, and I would love to help those with fewer opportunities to create a better future for themselves.
I am participating in this fundraising mission to help underprivileged children in Togo. Many children in Togo live in extreme poverty and our mission is to fund a resource centre in Togo's capital by equipping it with books and computers allowing children to study and become competitive in the workforce, gain self-sufficiency and follow their dreams!
