Skydiving
Take on the ultimate adrenaline rush with a skydive.
Ready for the ultimate adrenaline rush? Skydive for ActionAid and experience the thrill of a lifetime. Soar through the skies and fundraise to support women and girls around the world as they tackle injustices and claim their rights.
Hurling yourself out of a plane is an unbelievably exhilarating experience which everyone must try! The ActionAid team helped me organise all sorts of crazy events to help raise the sponsorship - it was so worth it.
Why skydive for ActionAid?
In 2012, Najlaa fled from Syria to Turkey as a refugee after barrel bombing devastated her community and her husband was detained by the regime.
In Turkey, she has since founded Kareemat, the first Syrian women-led organisation dedicated to fostering peace, security and dignity.
Kareemat provides a safe space and "home away from home" for other female refugees. It supports women's economic empowerment through training of skills and education as well as promoting peacebuilding among the local community.
By fundraising for ActionAid, you can support organisations like Kareemat to help refugees rebuild their lives and claim their rights.
