Story

<p>Well thank you for visiting my page!</p> <p>In August 2012 I&nbsp;will be&nbsp;climbing Mount Kilimanjaro along with 25 other students&nbsp;all in the name of charity.</p> <p>At 5,895m high, Kilimanjaro&nbsp;is&nbsp;the world's&nbsp;biggest free standing mountain and&nbsp;tallest mountain in Africa. The trek will be physically and mentally demanding and we are aiming to reach the peak in just under a week.&nbsp;We are taking the hardest route so&nbsp;it really is going to be tough.</p> <p>&nbsp;<a href="http://digdeep.org.uk/">Dig Deep</a> are a fantastic registered&nbsp;charity&nbsp;run by student and graduate volunteers.&nbsp;It provides sustainable supplies to communities in Eastern Africa. The sponsorship raised by completing the challenge will fund the next water project. This will save countless lives by providing clean water to thousands of people.</p> <p>&nbsp;Individually, I need to raise<span style="text-decoration: underline;"> &pound;2,500&nbsp;</span>&nbsp;which is only realistic with YOUR help. Despite the cliche, a little really does go a long way and every penny counts towards reaching this massive total. Any amount will be greatly appreciated and it really would mean a lot to myself and to those who lives you&nbsp;will be&nbsp;improving.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;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&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please&nbsp;<strong>DIG DEEP&nbsp;</strong>and donate now.</p> <p>Thank you so much,</p> <p>Laura xxxx</p>
