I Need Your Money
I'm running a half marathon for the children of the world. They've asked me on their behalf to beg you for any cash that you can spare them. It's a well known fact that children prefer British bank notes with Adam Smith and John Houblon on the back of, so don't disappoint them.
I'm running 12.8 miles on what will probably be a cold, wet and windy October 12th around some of London's parks. (http://www.royalparkshalf.com/the-route.html). Come and cheer me on if that sounds like fun, otherwise please be the generous people that I know you all are and donate anything you can for those poor kids dying out there alone, miserable, dying, starving, homeless and dying.
How Your Money Will Help
Of the 10.8 million children who die each year, 6 million fall victim to diseases that could be prevented or treated. Millions of children still do not survive the first year of life. Each year UNICEF provides help to hundreds of millions of the most needy with vaccinations and medical care, clean water, emergancy assistance and a solid education. Anything you can give will go towards giving children a better chance in life.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: UNICEF UK gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
