Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. As you probably know, the United Nations has declared 2009. the 'Year of the Gorilla', and with very good reason given their plight.
All monies raised during this 100 foot abseil down a London riverside building in a Gorilla suit (synthetic of course) will be invested in the future of the gorillas, through our 25 projects in Central Africa.
Note that I will take off my 'Gorilla head' just prior to departure, to be photographed to ensure that another ex-para doesn't take my place on the day.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Gorilla Organization gets your money faster and,
If you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation. Also less hassle for me.
Best wishes and sponsor me if you are able, small amounts (£2 and upwards) are most welcome.
In any case, please learn more about what is happening to gorillas and what can be done to aid their survial.
