Jue and Pete James is raising money for HOPE International Development Agency
“Jue and Pete James's fundraising”

on 5 July 2009

Donations cannot currently be made to this page
HOPE International Development Agency is continuing our work in Bonke, a region in southern Ethiopia. When we first started our work there in 2009, only 14% of the 199,739 people had access to safe water. Now it is 48%. Our goal to bring this to 100% in the Bonke region by 2018.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

On the 18th July 2009 Jue and Pete will be attempting to complete the Bob Graham Round: a journey of 64 miles around 42 of the highest mountain tops in the Lake District in 24 hours.

We are raising money for Hope International, a non-profit making Canadian organisation who try to help the world's poorest people through community based projects such as providing clean water and sanitation, supporting families by helping them grow enough food to feed themselves and their communities, providing education for children and adults, and saving lives in times of disaster or conflict, helping survivors rebuild their lives, livelihoods and communities.

The Bob Graham Round: Bob Graham was a hotelier in the Lake District in the 1930s who on his 42nd birthday shattered the existing record for the most Lake District peaks to be visited in a 24 hour period. He tried to visit 41 peaks the previous year and didn't make it, but then added an extra peak (Great Calva) and succeeded. Our aim is the complete the same route, at the same age (we are both 42 this year), and raise as much as we can for charity.
