<p>Hi! Thanks very much for visiting my page.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm running the 2012 London Marathon for Pratham. It would mean a lot to me if you'd considering sponsoring me - anything will do.&nbsp;</p> <p>For those that are keeping track, I was aiming to run the 2010&nbsp;Marathon&nbsp;for Pratham. However, while training for it I seriously damaged my knee, and have been un able to run since. Fear Not! After a year's physio, I now feel I am in a position to start training again for 2012. I will not give up.&nbsp;</p> <p>Pratham was started with the simple goal:<em> Every child in school... and learning well</em>. &nbsp;Of India&rsquo;s 210 million children, almost half are unable to read. &nbsp;AlthoughPratham has helped over 33 million children, there are still more than 80 million children who cannot read or write!</p> <p>You can help change this fact, and in doing so help create a brighter future.&nbsp;</p> <p>&ldquo;If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.&rdquo;</p> <p>Mahatma Gandhi&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It&rsquo;s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Pratham UK gets your money faster and, if you&rsquo;re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.</p> <p>So please sponsor me now!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
