HUMANA PEOPLE TO PEOPLE ITALIA ONLUS
Run for women in Zimbabwe
Sport is a powerful tool for empowerment: DAPP Zimbabwe, a non-profit association part of the Humana People to People Federation, knows this well. Since 1980, it has been working in the country to reduce inequality and poverty, paying particular attention to the most vulnerable communities, women, and children.
This is why DAPP Zimbabwe has launched the Women Economic Empowerment through Sport project, which offers young women in the districts of Shamva and Bindura a real opportunity for change. Through sport, 150 women between the ages of 15 and 35 will be able to develop confidence, leadership, and team spirit, skills that are essential for accessing income-generating activities.
You too can make a difference and contribute to the implementation of this important program by creating your own page on Rete del Dono and forming your own relay team with Humana People to People Italia. All funds raised on Rete del Dono will be used to finance activities dedicated to women in Zimbabwe.
Thanks to the creation of netball, handball, soccer, and volleyball teams, participants will train regularly, take part in tournaments, and attend workshops and awareness-raising activities to engage the community and promote values that are fundamental to women’s empowerment. In addition, 50 women will receive seeds to start community gardens, improving nutrition and income.
HOW YOU CAN HELP:
- Participate in the Milan Marathon as a charity runner.
- Create your own relay team and run the Relay Marathon with Humana People to People Italia.
Not a runner? No problem! You can support the project by making a direct donation and sharing this page to spread the word to as many people as possible.
The project will have tangible results: greater female participation in sports, improved health and confidence, social cohesion, and new economic opportunities.
With your help, all of this can become a reality! Donate now to support the courage, growth, and dreams of these women. Together, we can build a more equitable future full of opportunities.
What are you waiting for? Run with Humana! Every step counts and every donation makes a difference.
