RUN 4 A CAUSE #WILDMONGOO

Help Us Run for a Cause That Matters
We’re Gaelyn Slabber-Postma and Gillian Lupton-Smith — two women, a personal trainer and a pediatric doctor, taking on one of the toughest physical challenges in South Africa:
Four ultramarathons. Over 600km of trail. One goal — to raise R100,000 for Wild Mongoo.

Why We're Running
We’re dedicating every step of this journey to Wild Mongoo, a powerful nonprofit based in George that supports women facing:

Poverty

Prostitution

Abuse

Gender-based violence

Their mission is to transform Vulnerability into Ability — by offering trauma-informed psychological, spiritual, economic, and medical support, as well as holistic skills training in sewing, leatherwork, beading, printing, nail care, and more.

They don’t just offer hope — they offer a way forward.
And they need our help.
