The Russ Foundation is a not for profit organisation based in Tamil Nadu, South India. Their key goal is to offer a chance to those who do not have one. By offering a home, a family, food, water and education to children who have been abandonned they offer a second chance to those who had their first one taken away.
As well as their amazing work at the orphanage the Russ Foundation extends into the local community running Aides awareness programmes, vocational training in the community, care for the elderly and womens health clincs amongst others.
The work they do at the Russ is truely worthwhile and commendable and I am delighted to be fundraising for them. Please give generously and know that every penny you donate will go directly to help those less fortunate than ourselves. Thank you.
My challenge: I tried to think of something that would actually be a real challenge for me and so I have decided to do the following. For one month I will abstain entirely from:
Alcohol of any sort - I like nothing more than a beer/ g&t/ glass of wine when I get in from work/ at the weekend
Meat - anybody who knows me knows that generally if there isnt meat in it... I dont eat it!
Caffiene - this means no tea, no coffee, no coke nada! oh god...
Sweets and chocolate of any kind - speaks for itself really!!
