This organisation started off taking used shoes to Kenya for people with no shoes to use. They then got involved with bringing people together through running and now they are planning on building a children's hospital in Eldoret, the town where many of the world's best athletes are based.
Some of the videos on their site and here at youtube are quite moving. The power of running to bring people together following the election violence of two years ago is amazing.
Take a look at this website and see what you can do to help. Maybe we'll take a group out to Eldoret to train in a year or so and be able to see some of the good they are doing.
