Moove Together

Imagine carrying a container full of water on your back for hours at a time. Some people in Africa have to walk for miles to their nearest supply, often getting up in the dark to make sure they get there and back in time.

If you fancy a bit of a challenge and want to help families in need then why not get yourself sponsored and clock up some of your own miles for Africa?

A ‘Mooveathon’ in your village hall is the perfect way to get the whole community involved and have some fun. The aim is to keep people active for as long as possible doing different things. Choose how long you want to aim for, get everyone involved and get sponsored!

Here’s some inspiration...choose one or maybe a selection:

Length 5 hrs

1 hr of ballroom dancing

1 hr of step aerobics

1hr of knitting while you walk

1 hr of rollerskating

1 hr of song and dance

Pick a leader for each hour and then round up your volunteers. Just make sure there’s always someone moving, you’ll be surprised how much you can raise! Download your sponsorship form now.

£78 will provide a sturdy friend to a family in need. A donkey can help transport vital water for the family and their land. They can also carry vegetables on the long journey to market.

Some other ideas:

• Why not try a sponsored walk? Do some miles for moos! Get sponsored and even get others involved too.

• How about a parachute jump or sponsored bike ride? Work out how far you’ll be going and collect money for the distance you make.
