Run The Sahara is Sandblast's annual awareness and fundraising event. It promotes the Sahara Marathon, the world's most prestigious solidarity race organized in a refugee camp. This unique and inspiring international race takes place in the Algerian desert in aid of the Saharawi refugees and raises funds for our Studio-Live music project.

Dear friends,
We're so excited to announce that today 15 UK runners are joining the Sandblast Team in the Saharawi refugee camps to participate next Tuesday in the 2015 edition of the Sahara Marathon. They'll stay with a Saharawi family for a week, experiencing life in the desert and the best hospitality you can get. They'll also visit the Studio-Live project on the ground to see what they are raising funds for. This year we have set up shop in the studio space of the Saharawi National Music School where our runners will meet our wonderful sound engineers-in-training and witness some recording sessions. Our aim with the funds raised through sponsorship of the UK runners is to build a sound engineering training centre next to the music school and expand our programme. Please show your support and help us reach this goal by sponsoring one of our team runners at Just Giving - Run the Sahara 2015. |
