Thank you to all who have already been so supportive and have sponsored me to run in the Bupa 10k London marathon, 'Maya's Run', to help raise funds for The Esther Benjamins Trust. It is an enormous achievement to have reached the fundraising target!! Well done!!</span><span style="font-family: "Arial Narrow","sans-serif"; color: black; font-size: 11pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';"></span></p>

Please continue to show your amazing support! We estimate that it costs £300 to keep one child in one of our refuges for 12 months so you can be assured that you have helped us by donating.</span><span style="font-family: "Arial Narrow","sans-serif"; color: #1f497d; font-size: 11pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-themecolor: text2;"></span></p>

Trafficked there from Nepal, ostensibly to become a performer, for two years she had been in the clutches of circus owner Raza Khan (also pictured) who drew his pistol in a bid to stop our rescue. He failed and Maya joined our children’s refuge in Kathmandu. Since then she has been in the full time care of the Trust and last September left school to train as a health assistant, funded by EBT. Maya has also become an accomplished distance runner and on the 30th May 2011 will be coming to UK from Kathmandu with Trust Founder Philip Holmes to take part in “Maya’s Run” (aka The BUPA 10km) in London. We want to field a team that will raise £10,000 for the training and support of other young people who, like Maya, will leave the refuge soon and need a vital helping hand into adult life.</span><br /><br /><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">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.</span><br /><br /><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">So please dig deep and donate now.</span></span><span style="font-family: "Arial Narrow","sans-serif"; color: black; font-size: 11pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';"></span></p>
