Welcome to Hamlin’s Ethiopian Active Challenge, where you’ll follow a virtual trail from Yirgalem in southern Ethiopia to the capital, Addis Ababa. Your daily steps, fitness regime and even household tasks, can be converted into miles on the virtual route. Along the way, reach cultural and geographic milestones where your digital postcard will teach you more about Ethiopian life.
When you sign up for Hamlin's Ethiopian Active Challenge, your entry fee includes a donation in support of Hamlin Fistula Ethiopia.

Get your friends and family involved in a worthwhile cause while you get active and virtually explore southern Ethiopia.
Hamlin Fistula Ethiopia is leading the fight to eradicate obstetric fistula worldwide. Obstetric fistula is an internal childbirth injury that leaves the woman or girl incontinent, humiliated, and often cut off from her community. The Hamlin Model of Care provides holistic care that empowers women to secure their health and well-being. Hamlin Fistula Ethiopia has treated over 60,000 women in Ethiopia for free.
