You can contribute to the cause by:
Sharing on social media:
By sharing any of my posts on social media, you’re driving awareness for TB. Follow me on Instagram and Facebook @ 2feet4tb for weekly posts. Use when participating in a run or cycle when you want to share it from your own social media platforms. Participate through running or cycling:
I often wear different colour shoes when I run or cycle because when people notice it they usually ask about it and then I can engage in a conversation with them about my TB experience. So not everyone has two pairs of running shoes, but everyone has different colour socks. Take a “feet-selfie” with your different colour socks and use the hastag when you share it on Instagram or Facebook. Organise a community run or cycle for TB:
Gather your own group of running and cycling enthusiast and participate with different colour socks and share your “feet-selfie” via social media platforms with the hashtag . Share your own story:
As a TB survivor I’ve met many people who have been impacted by TB either directly or indirectly. Sharing your own story will help to break the stigma surrounding the subject of TB and will bring a new understanding which is so vital and necessary. There is so much power in sharing your story, because not only does it bring awareness, it brings healing. Share your story, email [email protected]
