Story

Dear friends and supporters,

We are deeply touched by your generosity and kindness. Our orginal
donation target has been reached within one week since our urgent call for donation. However, the task of relief and rebuilding is huge.
Edinburgh Marathon running has finished. But our care and determination to help children affected by the earthquake towards a better life are still on going.
Please continue to donate to our 'Help the Earthquake Children' project so we can help more children. Thank you so much.

Hello!

Thank you for visiting this fundraising page by RBS team and charity Mothers' Bridge of Love (MBL)  for children in Chinese Earthquake!

The charity MBL is dedicated to primarily developing and supporting various cultural activities for the adopted Chinese children from who are living with their British parents in this country. At the same time, MBL takes it up as its mission to help improve the life quality of the disabled Chinese children and the poor children in 's rural areas. All the money raised will go towards several ongoing projects to achieve their goals.

Please hear MBL's call on helping children in Chinese Earthquake! After this terrible disaster, a lot of children need our help, in rebuilding their home, rebuilding their classroom, and rebuilding their life. This will be MBL's mission. MBL will encourage everyone to help affected children in the disaster area. The fund raised here will be used to help those children, by supporting disaster relief projects, school rebuiding projects, and medical and social care projects for children. We are not at the same geographical place, but we feel the same deep in our heart. So Join us and do what we can do to help!

Thanks for the speedy response, we have achieved the first target of 2000 pounds. By 23:38 tonight (14th May 08), we have reached 3416 pounds. Please promote this link to your friends, and together, let's challenge a fund of 20000 pounds.

Your support would mean a lot to us -- even a little money will go a long way! So please dig deep and sponsor us online. Help us change a child's life for the better!

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Mothers'Bridge ofLove will receive your money faster and, if you are a taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you (Please REMEMBER to tick the box for 'taxpayer'!) .

If you have any further queries about the projects and the MBL, please visit http://sichuanearthquake.org.uk/ , the MBL website www.motherbridge.org , or write to enquiries@motherbridge.org.  

Many thanks for your support.

James Barrie (RBS), and all from Save Children in China Quake.
