Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are Carlijn and Rebecca and after hours of indecisiveness we have finally decided that we are going to take on the challenge of jailbreak!

On the 31st of March we will be attempting to travel as far away from Leeds as we can within 36 hours through whatever transportation we can find; plane, car, bus, train, cyclo, walking... without spending a penny!

In order to be able to do this we want to raise 350GBP to donate to a charity of our choosing. We hope you will support us and help us to raise as much money as possible as we prepare to convince and sweet talk our way out of the country (hopefully). 

In supporting Cancer Research UK you will be contributing to the worthwhile research which is helping more and more people survive the fight against cancer. We have chosen to support Cancer Research UK because both of us have experienced the pain and loss of a loved one or family member. It is our personal ambition to contribute to Cancer Research and extend and better the lives of those affected.Therefore any donations, big or small, will reiterate our caise and will be greatly appreciated on all accounts, thank you!

 

For those of you who do not know what Jailbreak is, here is a short description: 

Jailbreak is a hitch activity provided by Leeds RAG (raising and giving) at the University of Leeds. It's a competition where teams work together to raise money for a charity of their choosing, ours is Cancer Research UK. Each team has to raise at least 350GBP to be able to participate in Jailbreak. Once teams have reached this target, on March 31st they will all meet outside Parkinson steps and set off at 09.00 and have 36 hours to get as far from Leeds as possible! They will not be able to use the money they have raised- all the money you donate will go directly to the charity. We have to try to get FREE lifts, trains, boats or planes to get out of the country. The team to travel the furthest often receives extra funding for their charity from their sponsors, and receives a prize from Leeds RAG (festival tickets).

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
