Story

To celebrate my 90th birthday I am going to tackle whitewater rafting on the River Tay.

On 5th March 2010, I will take on this challenge to raise money for the summer camp in Moldova. The camp lacks many basic facilities at present. The money raised will buy a water pump. At the moment water is carried into the camp on a tanker.

Living conditions in Moldova are desperate for many families. The camps give children the opportunity to get away into the country and to experience fun, friendship and faith.

I have been to Moldova and I know what it is like. Now that I am no longer able to go I want to take part in this challenge to raise money to help.

Please sponsor me and raise money to build, equip and run the summer camps.
