Be the Bridge

The Second Annual Health Bridges International Bridging the Divide is a three race event occurring in three separate cities in Peru over the course of one week.

A group of North American volunteers and Peruvian athletes will be running three 50-kilometer runs. The runs will take place in the cities of Lima, Arequipa and Piura.

The point of the event - to draw more people into volunteer efforts and to shift the scope of poverty. In each of the three host cities, HBI has organized volunteer events with Peruvian NGOs. We will be running from event-to-event.

The goal  - to demonstrate to people the short distances that exist between "have" and "have not" communities and to draw more people into the opportunity to serve.

You can follow our efforts (there will be real time posts from the course of each run) at: I am the Bridge
