Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm taking part in the 10k Grand East Anglian Run on 1st May 2011 to raise money for Save The Children. Save The Children work in more than 120 countries around the world. They help children caught up in emergencies including Libya and Japan; provide access to better healthcare and a decent education; protect children who are exploited, and are tackling global child hunger.

These are a few of the ways Save The Children could use the money you donate:

£3 can buy a mosquito net to protect a child from malaria  

£5 can heat a classroom in Afghanistan for a month    

£10 can cover one month supplementary feeding expenses for a malnourished child

£20 can buy a pair of goats for an income generating project in the Democratic Republic of Congo  

£53 can equip a school with basic equipment like pens, paper, and books for a year  

£100 can cover the training costs of five community health promoters in Ethiopia

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.
