Running for the ill children. Kateryna Tsigankova

I am a mother, a writer, a private entrepreneur and a marathon runner. I can turn small steps into long distances. My dream is to see how our small donations turn into a great and necessary help to the children who need it.

In Znamyanka orphanage there are 130 children in need of special care. I run to raise funds for special nutriotion Resource Optimum for seriously ill children.

I remember the first steps of a boy with cerebral palsy in this orphanage, which at the age of 8 weighed 20 pounds. He was able to do them right after an intensive course of special nutrition, which made him gain weight and strength for further rehab.

This is my first halfmarathon, and I believe that the money collected will help take first steps to more than one seriously ill child.
