Running for Retrak
By choosing to run for Retrak in the Brussels 20 KM, you will help to make a real difference to the lives of street children. Your sponsorship money will help to provide vulnerable children with food, clothing, medicine, hygiene and somewhere safe to sleep. You will help children to return to a safe family environment, a foster family or the means to live independently by generating a sustainable income. But more than this, you will offer hope to vulnerable children with nowhere else to turn.
For more information please visit our new website: www.retrak.org.
