News Story: Race Across the World with Project Trust

We are excited to share that our Race Across the World challenge is in full swing.

Over 60 of our currently fundraising Volunteers are racing in teams to cover 3,677 virtual miles – the distance from London Heathrow to Ethiopia, where Project Trust’s very first project began back in 1967.

These incredible young people are running, walking, cycling, swimming, and more to raise the funds they need to make their international placements a reality.

Plus, they’re not going it alone. Over 50 Project Trust Alumni have offered a helping hand, joining in to bag the miles, share encouragement, and show what it means to stand behind the next generation of Volunteers.

This is the first time Project Trust has launched a campaign specifically to support Volunteers’ fundraising efforts – a reflection of just how tough it has become for young people to raise what they need.

Become a Final Sprint Supporter

As we prepare for the final stretch of our Race Across the World campaign, we are asking Alumni to become Final Sprint Supporters and help our Volunteers reach the finish line.

From 23rd to 29th June, every donation will be doubled through our Match Fund Campaign. By becoming a Final Sprint Supporter, you’re pledging your support for the final week of our campaign, when every donation will be matched.

Your gift will directly help Volunteers overcome financial barriers and reach their placements this September.

Make your pledge today and double your impact.
