Welcome Runners!
Running takes discipline and perseverance. In the mountains of Quiché, Guatemala it is a physical challenge to get around. For kids to access a middle school education after primary school, it is as challenging as running uphill. When we started Run:Hope in 2015, less than 10% of students were continuing on to middle school in the communities we served. Run:Hope is helping change that and by running with sponsors, you can help open paths to education in Quiché, Guatemala. Here is a taste of what it's like getting around in Quiché and a little about our Run:Hope education program.
