My story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
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. The 2010 Virgin London Marathon is taking place on Sunday, 25th April 2010. I am running on behalf of the Save the Rhino Charity. The webpage for this charity is www.savetherhino.org. Why has Jack chosen this charity? Two reasons. 1. My training partner Mark, was already signed up to this charity, so I applied too. It's easier having someone else to train with and who has exactly the same goals. Having travelled in Africa and the Indian sub continent, I have had the privilege of seeing these magnificent beasts in the wild. When I read about the numbers of rhinos left in the wild I was shocked.
Why save rhinos? Some background. At the turn of the 19th Century, one million rhinos lived on planet earth. In 1970, there were around 70,000. Today, there are fewer than 25,000 surviving in the wild:
50 Javan rhinos
200 Sumatran rhinos
2,800 Greater one horned (Indian) rhinos
4,180 black rhinos
17,480 white rhinos.
Not alot left eh! Rhinos are integral to the ecosystem. They are huge mega-herbivores and impact greatly on their environment by shaping the landscape.
Two rhino sub-species are thought to have become extinct within the last 3 to 4 years. Shocking. The last Northern White Rhino, formerly in the Democratic Republic of Congo, were exterminated by poaching in 2006. The story goes on poaching needs to stop. Your contributions will help greatly towards education, in-kind support for in situ projects focused on all five rhinoceros species, encourage and sharing of information, experience and skills between all the projects and to improve and measure the effectiveness of grant making activities.
Please give generously.
All the best
Jack

It would have been more interesting you chasing (or preferably being chased by) a rhino with only a spear, but this will do for now. Good luck. Tunde
