Running Across Borders (RAB) is a non-profit organization that expands economic opportunity to East African youth through running.

We utilize the power of sport to empower East African youth and change lives providing a structure whereby each beneficiary can have a sustainable economic future through their passion for running. We:

  • Run a training camp at 2300m (7,600 ft) above sea level in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

  • Support female and male Ethiopian athletes with the objective to facilitate opportunities for running, education and employment.

  • Have an innovative, sustainable and social entrepreneurial approach to funding through the RAB Visit and Train Programme; an experience of a lifetime for foreign athletes who want to experience the Ethiopian running culture.
