Race for Relief was founded
in 2007 to provide the relief funds to the very Missionary Sisters of the
Assumption who have provided so much hope to the South African community.
Funds will go towards anything from updating the facilities and purchasing
medical supplies at Sacred Heart House to founding the Education
for Life program which continues to educate on the prevention of
the AIDS virus.

 One
project very dear to the nuns is to provide for Zowdra, an amazing South-African
mother of 5, who lives in a 2-room house. Her children sleep under the
kitchen table every night and as the children continue to grow this arrangement
cannot continue. The nuns would like to provide the necessary funds to
add a working bathroom and a bedroom for the children.
With all this in mind, we have organized
Race
for Relief. We hope you can help us.
