Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Once again in 2011, we are taking part in the, now legendary, Scumrun (www.scumrun.com). The aim of this event is to raise much needed funds for charity. This year's nominated charity is Dreams Come True. A quick summary of what they do is below, but please take time to visit their website (www.dctc.org.uk) to find out more.
Dreams Come True is a national charity serving the whole of the UK with the mission of bringing joy to children who are terminally or seriously ill by making their treasured dreams come true. Since the charity was incorporated in 1988 we have fulfilled the dreams of more than 4,500 children with severe and life threatening illnesses such as cancer, cystic fibrosis, cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy.
Since 2006, the event has raised over £350,000, for different nominated charities every year. We were absolutely delighted last year, that, even when times were hard for everybody, including most charities, the event raised £100,000.
We would really appreciate your support (again in many cases) in 2011. In recognition of the current economic situation, and the hard times being experienced by many, we have lowered our target amount this year from £1000 to £750, but if we do exceed that we would be overjoyed.
Any donation would be great. We fund all cost's for the event ourselves, and ALL your donation will go to Dreams Come True.
If anyone wants a corporate sticker placing on the car in return for a donation, please e mail me (ianbanks1965@aol.com) or phone 07917 856428.
So please dig deep and donate now.
Many thanks.
