Hi, thank you for visiting my personal fundraising page. I am taking up a major challenge in the Coca-Cola LONG RUN 2014, organised by Total Fitness Group (TfG) of the Maldives on 16th May 2014. Challenging to raise more than $15,000 to help Utheemu United. And this is where I need all your help, and all your support. Bare with me as I explain you why I have chosen “Utheem United” HA. Utheem is an island of more than 800 people. Lovely people whom I have met, but sadly, most of them need some kind of attention. More than 77% of people have a high FAT %, more than 66% with high BMI, 18% or more with high cholesterol, and there are many more serious indicators including high BP and heart disease. High elevation of BMI & body fat% makes this population at high risk of developing T2DM (Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus). I am challenging to raise funds to help the beautiful citizens of HA. Utheem become more aware of their health. Start a healthy lifestyle and ensure that they can be fit and run marathons such as these. Hopefully see more people from HA. Utheem take part in the LONG RUN 2015. You can donate funds as I fight this cause. Please dig deep and donate, every little counts! Ahmed Marzooq (Mare')
