Run to End Poverty is a team of compassionate runners united for a common cause – to bring an end to extreme poverty in Africa and to change Canadians' perceptions about Africans. Since 2007, runners across Canada and Africa have run together to raise awareness about extreme poverty, and to build support for Engineers Without Borders’ (EWB) development efforts in Africa. In just two years the team has grown with races now planned in Vancouver, Montreal, Waterloo, Calgary and Ottawa!

Run to End Poverty provides team members with the opportunity to train together, to learn together, and to race together within local high-profile running races. Through coaching and training workshops and weekly group runs, beginners can build a strong base while experienced runners can improve their abilities and aim for their personal best!

By raising awareness through high-profile local races and through the people we touch during fundraising activities, we hope to build stronger support for Canadian international development initiatives.
