Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.

We are trying to bring 1,000 pipers/drummers/pipebands from all over the world to Japan in 2008. They will parade and play at events to raise money here in the Kansai area of Japan and all profits will go to the RNLI. 

The Scottish culture has spread around the world and Pipefest, held in a different country each year, turns this phenomenon back on itself.  It is fitting then that such an event should benefit the country of its origin.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: RNLI - Royal National Lifeboat Institution will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now!

Many thanks for your support.
