Hello!
We’re the Hoys, Ellen and Aaron, and we’ve decided for the month of August, we’re taking on a challenge to raise money for Stand By Me.
Our aim? To run (Ellen) and walk (Aaron) 300km in 30 Days! (150km each).
We recently took on sponsorship of a young boy in Colombia, and the money we’re aiming to raise will go straight to helping him and so many young kids like him, through the work of the Emmanuel Care Centre.
The children cared for by Stand by Me in Colombia come from incredibly challenging circumstances, but the Emmanuel Care Centre is a place exploding with colour, full of laughter and run by committed staff determined to bring joy into the lives of over 200 Stand by Me kids.
We would greatly appreciate any and every donation you can possibly give. The work Stand by Me do, especially in Colombia, is so needed and supports many children and their families.
Thank you so much for wanting to help us raise money through this challenge, and in turn transform the lives of children in Colombia.
God Bless,
The Hoys
