Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.
I'm taking part in a 50 mile sponsored cycle from London to Cambridge
- On Yer Bike 2006 - to raise money for youth community projects and
other humanitarian activities in Zimbabwe, an oppressed and
impoverished country with 80% unemployment. Some money may be used to
pay for medical bills, school fees or food for very vulnerable people
but an important and more sustainable use of the money will be
supporting youth groups who have a vital role to play in keeping their
communities alive, building awareness of rights and democracy, and
initiating community self-help projects such as garbage collection and
vegetable gardening projects to improve nutrition.
Examples of what your money could do: £7 could pay for a young
activist to attend a 2 day workshop on community leadership or the use
of strategic non-violence to bring about change. £20 could purchase 4
permaculture kits to help 4 very vulnerable households. £55 could pay
for a child to attend school for a year (government schools are no
longer free in Zimbabwe and more children than ever are dropping out
of school).
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. If you
are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at
no cost to you.
So please sponsor me now!
Many thanks for your support.
