Hi,
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
If you can read this page, then you are one of the lucky ones who are blessed with sight. I am trying to raise funds to help those less fortunate, and are either impaired visually or need simple prescriptions to aide their vision.. The sad part about this is that the solution and cure for their problem is just within reach, but because they can't afford it , they are faced with the consequence of their condition deteriorating.
The Al Hasan Foundation is a London-based charity founded in 2004 by British ophthalmic surgeon Dr. Haidar Al Hakim (who is a close friend of mine) and his former friend, Sharon Ridsdale. The charity has concentrated its activity in a poor area in Iraq, where people are disadvantaged and desperately need better healthcare and opthalmic services. For more information on the charity visit: www.alhasanfoundation.com
Any donation big or small can and WILL make a difference. PLease help those least able to help themselves.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Al Hasan Foundation 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.
So please sponsor me now! (Don't be fooled by my unfit exterior, I'm like a lean mean running machine when it comes to the real thing :) trust me if theres one thing iraqi's can do its to run -usually running away, but it makes no difference now- the only thing that can beat our running is our eating!
Please Sponsor!!!!
