#TeamOrange runners go the miles for meals

Ten of our amazing #TeamOrange volunteers took on a running challenge this weekend, hitting the streets of Leeds for a 10k race.

They ran the ‘Miles for Meals’, raising money to provide nutritious meals to the poor and needy through our Feed Our World programme.

Over £2,000 was raised by the team, which means 2,000 meals for people facing food poverty across Asia, Africa and the Middle East.

Haroon ‘The Mota-Vator’ Mota, Midlands Fundraising Manager, provided encouragement, and was impressed by everyone’s dedication to training during Ramadan.

Donations can be made to the team’s JustGiving page: https://www.justgiving.com/Teams/PennyAppealLeeds10k

The next running challenge is a three-part series of races called ‘Half Marathons for Homes’ so sign up and get training now. You’ll get plenty of support and your very own #TeamOrange running t-shirt, not to mention help give orphans safe, happy homes.
