Mo's First Ever Half Marathon in aid of Angkor Hospital for Children

  • 21/11/2019 - 31/12/2019

Mohammed Ali is fundraising for Angkor Hospital for Children

I'm making a difference by raising money for a cause close to my heart. Please support me by donating.

My Story

So I did a crazy thing earlier this year and said I'd run a half marathon in 2019 and signed up for the Angkor Wat Half Marathon. The race is on 8th December 2019 in Angkor, Cambodia. I will be running the Half Marathon (that's 13.1 miles / 21.1 km), and I have never, ever run a race before, unless you count the 1500 metre race in school over 20 years ago. So I am looking for your support to keep me motivated.

There was no point running for fun, so I am raising money for the Angkor Hospital for Children (AHC), which provides care and lifesaving treatment to children in Cambodia. Your support, will not only encourage me to complete the race (I sure need it), but you will be supporting the amazing work the hospital does in raising the healthcare standards for the children in Cambodia. They rely on donors like you, since only 5% of their operating cost is subsidised by the Royal Cambodian government.

Your donations, no matter how much they are, help towards a bigger goal and will go towards supporting the work of the AHC.

Here are some of the ways in which your donations will help:
  • US$10 will sponsor a child to receive physiotherapy treatment (that's about the price of 2 cappuccino's 
  • US$15 supports a dental visit for a child 
  • US$25 supports nursing at AHC
  • US$50 sponsors 3x counselling sessions for children of abuse or neglect
  • US$100 will sponsor one child to receive cataract eye surgery
  • US$250 will sponsor 24 hours of intensive care for a premature baby
  • US$750 will sponsor one closed heart surgery

See my updates on Twitter (https://twitter.com/iAmMohammedAli) and Instagram @iAmMohammedAli 

Oh and to make it really gruelling for myself (because signing up was crazy enough) I am aiming for a finish time of 2 hours or less - eek! So did deep guys and girls, help me stay motivated and help the kids of Cambodia.

Thanks for your support,
Mo
