Fun Runs For Charity and Why Go The Extra Mile
Would you consider a fun runs run event, for desperate children?
Peter Jackel returned from a trip to India with a terrible illness and a resolve to break the poverty cycle for Indian children.
Peter visited India in August 2009 intent on increasing his awareness of the plight of the Dalit children (otherwise known as the “Untouchables”). He visited the village of Ambala, a slum about 3 hours out of New Delhi. He was struck by the level of poverty, lack of access to clean water, poor educational facilities and poor housing conditions. A week before Peter arrived at the slum in Ambala, a young boy living there died of the very illness he was about to contract. Peter heard the stories of broken lives and no hope or future for the children. He met the people who knew the boy and was deeply touched by the experience.
Three days after returning to Melbourne Peter awoke to a splitting headache, fever, aching joints and hypersensitive skin. Unable to eat for seven days, Peter endured a migraine that lasted three days, accompanied by hallucinations and excruciating pain. After blood tests were sent to QLD, he was diagnosed with Dengue Fever, also called the ‘bone breaker’ disease, due to the extreme levels of associated pain. Bedridden, Peter reflected on the differences between Ambala and Melbourne. He had access to medical help, medication, clean drinking water, a safe place to recover and the ability to take time off from his work. His wife was able to care for and feed Peter and their 5 children until he recovered.
Now, Peter wants to do something to change the situation for those living in Ambala and other slums in India. Partnering with the not for profit organisation ‘Gospel for Asia’ he is organising a 50km walk in the Dandenong Ranges. Each participant will raise $200 in sponsorship to complete the walk and 100% of these monies raised will help break the poverty cycle in India. The money will be used to create centres for children and their families living in poverty stricken areas in order to give them a future. The centres already care for over 50,000 children by providing food, clothing, health and educational services.
Are you ready to go the extra mile in a fun runs run event? It will be a physical challenge in the beautiful Dandenongs, but most of all, it will be helping children have a better future.
