Story
Hello
My name is Avi Glejser, I am 14 years old and I am cycling 150 gruelling km to Bournemouth to raise much needed funds for GIFT , a charity I volunteer for weekly.
GIFT's twin objectives are to inspire and educate young people to GIVE whilst simultaneously helping those in NEED. Through GIFT, thousands of young volunteers are being inspired to become GIVERS and to make a difference.
We are fundraising for the volunteering branch of GIFT:
GIFT’s volunteers distribute £000s worth of food, provide tutoring and practical help to over 200 families, visit patients in hospitals and care homes. Currently GIFT has over 900 active volunteers. On an average week there are at least 300 young volunteers visiting a number of different families, care homes and hospitals.
The families that GIFT supports constantly express how much they appreciate the volunteers and what a difference they have made to their lives. In addition to this, the volunteers constantly express how this experience has transformed them and how they view the world. We, as volunteers, can agree that the experience has been amazing for us and we are honoured to be involved in such a great organisation.
In order to recruit more volunteers and sustain the growth of the organisation we urgently need more funds. Please donate now and help us to increase all the amazing work GIFT does!
With much love
