Challenge Events with Project Harar

Take on a challenge to help rebuild faces and change lives with Project Harar. 

Run a marathon, cycle across the country, climb a mountain or conquer your fears - there are so many different ways that you can help us make a difference.

Taking on a personal challenge is a super way to meet your own goals while raising money for some of the most isolated children in Ethiopia. 

Every 3 minutes a child is born with cleft. In Ethiopia, children born with cleft are already at a disadvantage, facing  severe malnutrition, stigma from their peers and speech difficulties.  Together we can break this cycle so that every child can grow up and reach their full potential.
