We started out as a team to raise funds for our Oxfam 100km Trail Walk in 2012. Although we had a blast organizing fund raising activities, it’s quite a hassle to do so on a tight timeline as well as to include a training schedule in it. So we decided to continue to keep the fun bit and leave the hard training alone. It is, after all, about having fun in raising funds for a good cause. Hi-Life Raisers aim to elevate the lives of people receiving these funds and I am sure for those contributing t …
