Story

<p><span style="color: #800080;">Hello everyone! </span></p> <p><span style="color: #800080;">Thank you so much for taking time out to visit my page :)</span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff6600;">In August 2012 I will be climbing Mount Kilimanjaro with 24 other people from my university to raise money for a charity called Dig Deep. Dig Deep works alongside the local community, government and other charities in Kenya to deliver renewable energy projects providing water, cooking gas and electricity. If you want to find out more about the charity please visit www.digdeep.org.uk</span></p> <p><span style="color: #3366ff;">At 19,340 feet (5,895 meters) it is <strong>the tallest freestanding mountain rise in the world</strong>! Kilimanjaro contains an example of virtually every ecosystem on earth &ndash; glacier, snowfields, deserts, alpine moorland, savannah, and tropical jungle, all of which found on the mountain. Although I am really excited about tackling this trek, which will be a total of 6 days, I desperately need your help! </span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;">My target is to raise &pound;2500 and to do this I rely on people's kind donations. Any amount however big or small will be really greatly appreciated, so please 'Dig Deep'! I will also be running Sheffield's Half Marathon next year and no doubt doing other things that I would never do otherwise in order to raise the money!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">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.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #808080;">I will be so grateful to anybody that donates, and if you tell people about what I am doing I would love you even more!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #800080;">Thank you for all of your support,</span></p> <p><span style="color: #800080;">Leigh xxx</span></p>
