I'm taking part in the Big City Sleep 2009 hosted by The Action for Brazil's Children Trust , which basically involves sleeping rough in a freezing cold Spitalfields on the 30th Nov to raise funds and awareness for homeless children in Brazil. As some of you know, I visited Brazil last year and witnessed the enormous rich-poor divide (and its effects) first hand, so it means a lot that I try to raise as much as possible. I only have ONE MONTH to get my target of £150 together, so I'm asking to you please give anything you can - no amount is too small!
If you want to know more about the charity then please do follow the link here: www.abctrust.org.uk/
By raising awareness and funds, the ABC trust supports local Brazillian organisations
who work to educate, support and inspire the most venerable children and
young people of Brazil.
If you have never donated using 'JustGiving' before, then how it works is they'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's secure, easier, faster, and will make sure that we'll get the most out of any money I manage to raise (with no extra cost to the donator)
Thanks for looking at my page, and hopefully now you'll go and donate!
