100km Just Bike for Child's i Foundation · 3 October 2009

We believe in families, not orphanages. We’re helping Uganda reimagine care so that no child anywhere need ever experience an orphanage again. We help repurpose orphanages into services that people really need, keeping families together, reuniting families or finding new ‘forever families’.

Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Child's i Foundation is a charity that has been set up to build a transitional home for abandoned babies and young children in Uganda.  Largely due to the HIV/Aids pandemic and overwhelming poverty, many babies and young children are simply left to die.  The plan is to 'provide a safe haven' with educational and medical facilities and 'ultimately to place these children into secure and happy families'.

As most of you know I should be able to cycle 100km and may even enjoy it.  However, following my trip to South Africa earlier this year I would like to make a difference in some way to the problems of Africa so please support me by giving something, however small.  There are more than 50 people on my circulation list and the first eight who donated were very generous.  If the remainder of you all give £5 each I'd beat my target.  Obviously if some of you can give more and tick the gift aid box as well, that would be even better. 

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.

All the best, Bridget
