Sporting Futures- Derby 10K 2009 · 19 April 2009 ·
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
I am doing the Derbyshire 10k on the 19th of April to try and raise much needed funds for a charity called The Smile Train. It is an international charity that provides cleft lip and cleft palate surgery to children in need, as well as providing cleft-related training to doctors.
Little Pinki suffered for 6 long years.
Treated like an outcast, tormented by children who threw rocks at her and called her Torn Lip. Never allowed to go to school. There were times when her father thought she’d be better off dead.
Then one day, a social worker told her parents about The Smile Train. Pinki and her Dad walked 70 kilometers and she received free surgery that gave her not just a new smile, but a second chance at life.
Millions of children just like Pinki are waiting for the same life-changing surgery. Some have been waiting for 10, 15 even 25 years.
For a simple surgery that takes as little as 45 minutes—and costs as little as £200.
These kids need our help.
Thanking you
