Story

<p>Dear All, <br /><br />Firstly thank you for taking the time to visit the page.<br /><br />As you may or may not know I have the privilege of running for the INCTR challenge fund at this year's London Marathon. <br /><br /><strong>The INCTR Challenge fund is an International Cancer Charity based in the UK (oxford) dedicated to fighting cancer in developing countries.</strong><br /><br />The money I hope to raise with your help, will be used for purchasing chemotherapy drugs for children with Burkitt Lymphoma in the Ocean Road Cancer Institute, Tanzania.<br /><br />Burkitt Lymphoma is one of the most common childhood cancers in tropical Africa and it is curable if is treated early enough. The cost of treatment is modest - as little as &pound;150 will provide chemotherapy treatment to save the life of a child with Burkitt Lymphoma. <br /><br />This is a very worthy cause and although I have the personal challenge to prepare, train, and ultimately run the marathon, I ask for your generosity and support in order to help the INCTR to save lives from cancer in developing countries.<br /><br />For further information about the cause and the charities work please visit the Charities site.<br /><br />http://www.challengefund.org/<br /><br />Thank you for your time.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></p>
