Take part in ‘Walk All Over Poverty’ a CARE walking event, and you will help us to be amongst the first to respond when emergencies strike.

Walk All Over PovertyWhen natural disasters or humanitarian emergencies occur, appealing to the general public for funds can lose crucial time.

By joining our charity walk and ‘walking all over poverty’, you will support CARE’s work, enabling us to provide fast, effective relief to people in need as soon as emergencies hit.

About this charity challenge

In this sponsored walk you can choose to walk 10 km or the full 25 km route. We ask for a minimum donation of £25 per person and encourage each participant to reach or exceed a fundraising target of £100.

Why walk for charity?

In emergency situations, a few hours can mean the difference between life and death, and your funds will save lives. Whether it’s food, water, blankets, hygiene kits, emergency shelter or medical supplies that are needed, we’ll be there to help and that's why taking part in our charity walk is so important.

Last year CARE reached more than 10 million people in emergency situations. This included helping people whose lives were torn apart by the catastrophic earthquake in Haiti, as well as those affected by the floods that devastated Pakistan.

East Africa food crisis

CARE is currently assisting people affected by the drought in East Africa. We are distributing food, safe water, animal feed and providing health and sanitation services.

CARE is also working with communities to make people less vulnerable to drought. Projects include helping farmers to learn about drought resistant crops and providing loans to help people expand their businesses or find alternative livelihood sources.

This is the most severe food crisis in the world today, affecting more than twelve million people. We need your support. Walk in solidarity with the thousands of people who are walking days and weeks to save their lives.
