Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

25 April:  What an awesome day.  I have my medal.  The spectating crowds were encouraging.  The weather was perfect.  A very emotional and satisfying experience.  God is good.  Thank you for your generous donations.  May you each be blessed.

20 April:  Off to the Expo tomorrow to collect my number.  No turning back now!  Keep me in your prayers on Sunday.

4 April:  Completed my second half-marathon - in three hours.  Feeling OK, so far, still injury free.  Maybe I'll do one more long run before tapering. 

In 2008 STOP International began work on the Vocational Training Village Project on the 6.5 acre land which was purchased for the purpose of training the orphans in vocational skills, to give them an opportunity to secure employment in the open job market.  An orphanage building has been erected and 30 children of the Way To Life Trust are now enjoying a secure living environment. Work continues this year with the construction of the dormitory for the orphan students, setting up the carpentry phase and a horticulture unit. 

This site will provide orphans from six orphanages which STOP International support through generous sponsors, an opportunity for developing vocational skills which will set them on the journey through life. 

Your donation will provide valuable financial support for the development of this site for the young orphan children.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

 

So please dig deep and donate now.
