- About
The Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris offers a unique occasion for British runners to run a closed-road Marathon in one of the world’s most beautiful cities. Whether your a novice or experienced runner, we will be cheering you on throughout your training to get you ready for an extremely exciting challenge.
Every beleaguered step you take is another step towards transforming a child’s life! We recommend taking the opportunity to discover the city of love and a well deserved mini break.
About Humanitas
Humanitas is a young, creative, grassroots charity that has worked for more than a decade to protect and care for some of the world’s most vulnerable children. We run medical, educational and foster care projects in Romania and Africa and more recently we have sent medical teams to deliver urgent treatment to refugees living in the European and Bangladesh border camps.
Your support means the world to us - and even more to the children in our care. We have seen for ourselves the transformation that we have made to individual lives - from children who have been kept in appalling conditions in state care in Romania and are now living in loving foster homes, to those living in poverty in rural Ghana who had never seen a book and are now reading and writing.
We are a grassroots charity which means that every donation counts. We are there, working on the ground in areas of the world where there is no government or charitable aid. Whether it's our social workers in Romania, our teachers in Ghana or our medical team working in the refugee camps, your support enables them to carry out their work and help the children who need it the most.
Thank you for deciding to run the Paris Marathon and raise funds for us. We will be with you every step of the way to cheer you on and hope you enjoy the lead up to your challenge as much as the achievement once you reach the finish line.
GOOD LUCK AND THANK YOU FROM ALL OF US AT HUMANITAS
