I am running the half marathon (21.1km) in the Melbourne Marathon Festival to raise money for the Elizabeth Chanakira Cancer Trust (ECCT).
The ECCT is a Zimbabwean-based charity organization that supports marginalized Zimbabwean cancer patients and provides practical nutritional tools for better health.
I am running to raise $600 which will be enough to feed a family of four with basic food items for a period of 6 months. Every dollar goes a long way, so please help. You can view their website at: www.elizabethchanakira.org and their blog at http://cancertrust.wordpress.com.
Hope this helps :D
