I'm participating in "Strides for Senegal 2019" benefiting Students for Senegal. Please support me by pledging per kilometer during my fundraising campaign. I believe in Students for Senegal's mission and I'm excited to earn your support with every kilometer. Please help me reach the campaign goal of $15,000 by pledging now. I really appreciate your support. Thank you!

For less than $10 we can provide a pair of sneakers to a student in Senegal.

Students for Senegal builds community centers in Senegal to empower students, expand access to education, and foster opportunity by providing resources and promoting the exchange of culture and ideas.

On our most recent trip to Senegal, in February, 2019, students from MHS were greeted by over 2000 students in Lambaye, Senegal, many of whom walked over 7 miles to come see us. There shoes were torn and there was broken glass on the ground. We vowed that we would make sure each student in Lambaye had a pair of shoes next time we came.

As we approach the opening of the Lambaye Learning Center, the end of a decade of work, we also approach the beginning of a time in which we hope students in Senegal will be provided for both in terms of their education and physical needs. Together, let’s work to ensure the students are provided for for decades to come.
