La Vida are a fantastic charity who sponsor 50 of the children at the Quest school in Villa Maria where offer subsidised or free education to children who otherwise would not be able to receive even a basic education. This was Quest4Change's first project and we have been working in Villa Maria, Peru for 14years now.
- Over the years we have taken over 200,000 kids swimming
Our projects help the children of this, one of the world's largest shanty towns, escape and avoid the prevalent drugs culture. If you would like to participate in a 10K run in London on Sunday the 11th of July and raise funds for the projects La Vida supports (http://www.facebook.com/l/60f8a;www.lavida.org.uk), you can get in touch with them through their facebook group, they would love to hear from you!
From La Vida:
The race was a lot of fun last year, so please help us beating the money raised in previous occasions. The money always goes a long way!
We have guaranteed 18 places for the race and you can sign up now to secure your place.
Watch La Vida's charity fund raising night to get inspired to get involved!
The entry fee is £30 per person, (which La Vida has already prepaid on your behalf). We have now set up the page in Justgiving for the London 10K run, please find the link below, which you can use to pay the entry fee please.

In the past, people have set up their own pages in JustGiving to raise funds for La Vida, so probably best to carry on with the tradition. All we ask is that you raise a minimum of £150.
Please forward this onto anyone that may be interested in raising funds for us, getting fit and also having lots of fun.
Thanks very much
La Vida team
