Story
For every ace I serve in a match between now and the end of 2015, I'm donating £50 to Unicef's work for children in emergencies.
No. of aces to date: 108
Spurred on by the child migrant and refugee crisis, I'm also asking tennis fans across the world to donate to help children whose world has been turned upside down by conflict. Never have so many children faced such grave dangers to their lives and futures. There are now more than 2 million Syrian children who are refugees. Too many have lost their mum or dad, their best friend, their home, their school.
Together we can help keep them safe and give them hope for the future. Just £50 can help provide 10 Syrian child with warm blankets.
What's more, my sponsors Standard Life and Under Armour, alongside ATP and the LTA, are matching each donation I make pound to pound - therefore raising £250 for each ace served for children in danger. Please donate - and help me ace it for Unicef and children around the world! .
Unicef is the world’s leading organisation working for children. They are on the ground, providing life-saving food, clean water, warm blankets and protection for children.
To help the children of Syria, the UK Government will also match pound for pound every donation you make.
DRAFT SCHEDULE:
2nd - 8th November: BNP Paribas Masters, Paris
15th - 22nd November: The ATP World Tour Finals, London
27th - 29th November: Davis Cup Final, Belgium
