Story

<p>Hey everyone, I'm running the Edinurgh Marathon on the 27th and thought I would use the opportunity to raise some money for charity. &nbsp;</p> <p>I will be running for Project Hope (www.projecthope.ps), which is a charity that provide educational and recreational activities as well as medical and humanitarian relief to the youth of Palestine. &nbsp;They are particularly focused both on children's rights and gender equality. &nbsp;They are based primarily in Nablus, in the West Bank, but also do work in the surrounding villages and refugee camps.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is relatively straight forward. &nbsp;If you don't already have an account and don't want to create one, you can just go through the process which consists of little more than giving your name, address and either card or PayPal details. &nbsp;If your a UK tax payer, make sure to tick the box for Gift Aid, as that will add an additional 25% to the amount you give. &nbsp;</p> <p>So if you have any money to give at all, please do as it would be very much appreciated.</p>
