I couldn’t be more excited to announce that on Nov. 7th, I will be running a 100 KM ultramarathon in support of child protection, child development and child education for the World Vision offices in West Bank, Jerusalem and Gaza. The funds raised will go to some very critical initiatives in supporting child protection and education as you’ll see on my page.
