Running for UDS
Fundraising for Uganda Development Services
Story
I am taking part in the Royal Parks Half Marathon in support of UDS (Uganda Development Services). Complete madness but it is such a good cause!
UDS is a really great charity that helps families in rural Uganda who are in severe poverty through the provision of water tanks, smokeless ovens inside home, farming support, IT and literacy support too… all great stuff!:)
I've recently started training; to make the most of the effort it takes, please help in making a difference to the people of Uganda
No amount is too small...equally there is no obligation. £5 could provide a school text books,£25 could train a farmer with skills to bring his earnings above a dollar a day or £250 could build a water storage tank for rainwater collection for a family.
If you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 25% in tax will be added to your gift to UDS, at no cost to you. every £, Euro, $ or SA Rand you donate will be matched through Microsoft's generosity.... £1 becomes £2.00.
Thank you for your support!
