Hi there! I am a South African citizen and desperately attempting to raise funds for university-related costs for this upcoming year. I do not have a foreign account, but a person I know and trust completely has a British account to where I am happy to consent the funds be transferred (and he will, in turn, transfer it to my local account along with his monthly contribution towards my costs).

Hey Colleen,

So glad that you asked.

CrowdRise is the leading crowdfunding platform for marathon runners and we would love to host your campaign. We work with events and charities large and small.

Chime in to our Customer Support team (nposupport@gofundme.com) with the name of the marathon you're running in and the charity you'd like to support so we can help get you set up.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
