Story

I have been challenged to learn 26 state capitals in alphabetical order and I have just a few days to learn them. I will then be tested and recorded to see if I can remember the 26 and I will have only 2 minutes and 60 seconds to complete the challenge. I love quizzing but I am not getting any younger so I hope I will be triumphant. Please sponsor me whatever you can afford during these complex times. 

Friend in Deed, like many charities has been hit hard by COVID-19 and because their primary service involves babies and children of all ages going into care homes to make friends with older people, they have had to change the way they work. They are still managing to keep all ages connected through letters, video calls, DVDs being made, weekly newsletters and projects that all ages can take part in from afar.
