Welcome to my fundraising page! 

Every spring, thousands of Canadians from coast to coast lace up their sneakers to participate in the World Partnership Walk, Canada’s largest public movement dedicated to fighting global poverty.

With over 700 million people living on less than $2.15 a day, I’m raising funds that empower vulnerable communities and individuals break the cycle of poverty. Donating to my fundraise campaign will support transformative programs that improve access to quality education, essential health services, food security, and sustainable livelihoods worldwide.

Please help me reach my fundraising goal. Every dollar raised makes a difference.

Walking Together for a Better World

Monday 11th May

Walking Together for a Better World

This year, something very close to my heart is happening. My daughter, along with her cousins, is taking part in the World Partnership Walk—Canada’s largest public movement to fight global poverty. Watching these young changemakers step forward with compassion and purpose has been incredibly inspiring.

They are walking to help raise awareness and funds for people around the world who face daily challenges many of us cannot imagine. Today, over 700 million people live in extreme poverty, surviving on less than USD $2.15 a day, with the greatest impact felt in communities across Africa and Asia. Through this walk, the children are learning that even small steps can create meaningful change.

Why This Matters to Our Family

The funds raised through the World Partnership Walk support Aga Khan Foundation Canada (AKFC), a registered Canadian charity that works to break the cycle of poverty through long‑term, sustainable solutions. AKFC invests in education, healthcare, clean water, and economic opportunities—helping communities build better futures with dignity and independence.

For our family, this fundraiser is about more than asking for donations. It’s about teaching empathy, responsibility, and global citizenship. My daughter and her cousins are learning that they have the power to make a difference—and that kindness and action go hand in hand.

How You Can Support Them

We would be deeply grateful for your support.

Every donation—big or small—helps create lasting change and encourages these young walkers to continue believing in the power of giving back.

If you’re able, please consider donating through our fundraising page and sharing it with others. Your support not only helps families around the world—it also motivates the next generation to lead with compassion.

From our family to yours, thank you for walking alongside us, in spirit and support, as we work together toward a more hopeful and equitable world.

With sincere gratitude,

Shagufta Maknojia
