Be A Hero

What's An Ellie's Run Hero?

Well, we have defined a HERO as a person who would be willing to help a child in Africa that they have never met...because most people just don't do that kind of thing. In Kibera, Kenya, $25 helps put a child in school for a year by buying their uniform, school books, and shoes. Not bad, huh? So as a HERO, you get active and engaged, and ask your friends and family to see how many children they can put in school... together.
