Story

Amigos!!

After months of punishing training, blisters, injury and very long journeys around London town… it’s time to deliver! I want you to be a part of this experience (a 30th birthday present to myself) by sponsoring to help people who are visually impaired. 

All funds will be going to Ojos Que Sienten / Sight of Emotion, a charity working towards empowerment and social integration through sensory experiences for blind and partially sighted people in Mexico and the UK.  

Check out for more information on OQS/SOE : www.ojosquesienten.org  and  www.sightofemotion.org.uk

Funds raised in the UK are being channeled through the Centre for Innovation in Voluntary Action -www.civa.org.uk


The person who manages this charity is a very smart and energetic friend - you can be assured your money will be very well utilized. 

Please dig deep and donate now, I promise to leave my legs and lungs in the streets of NY.


Every little counts so don’t be shy!

 

Thank you

Javier
