LET’S GET THE PARTY STARTED!
We’re bursting with excitement for this year’s Race for Daraja event on May 20, 2012! There will be more than 100 people running the race in Daraja shirts. That will definitely get people asking, “What’s Daraja?!”….
NEXT STEPS
1) Now that you have been matched with a Daraja girl, it is time to create an online fundraising page! Each participant is required to find 10 sponsors in order to officially be part of the Race for Daraja team. We encourage you to use the photograph and biography of your Daraja partner as you advocate for her. Deadline to create page: April 16, 2012
