Onze Missie:

Local Heroes wil de gezondheid en leefomstandigheden van schoolkinderen in Afrika verbeteren

Dit doen we door fondsen te werven voor projecten op het gebied van onderwijs, gezondheidszorg en beweging. De ‘local heroes’ zijn de verbindende schakel in hun eigen Afrikaanse regio’s.

“My mission as a world class athlete was breaking world records and winning Olympic Medals. Now it is the wellbeing of my people in Ethiopia. Education and health care are key factors for development. That is why I give my full support to Local Heroes”.
