Please tell me who you are so I can say thanks.
The difference an educated child can make to his or her community by breaking the cycle of poverty is immense. Imagine the difference we can make, every US$250 raised pays for one child's education for one year. Just US$20 takes a child off the streets and into school for a month.
I'll be riding the legendary Ho Chi Minh Trail from Dong Hoi, across the DMZ and down to the imperial city of Hue. Whilst you will be missing a beautiful journey, you can live it vicariously by sponsoring me and save your perineum from permanent damage!
Help me to help these children. Miss a meal out this week and use that money to sponsor me. Please. Last year you helped me raise over USD5,000, which helped 20 children stay in school all year. Think about that 20 children who would otherwise missed on an education and the opportunities that creates for them and their families. Help me keep them there!
All the money raised goes to the Saigon Children's Charity and is used to fund a vocational school for very under privileged children. It is a school I have visited and reputable charity which I have known since 1997.
Thanks in anticipation.
