Hi,

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As some of you are well aware I am passionate about cricket. What I really care about is something far more important, and that is to help my brethren back home get the opportunities I have had. Therefore I have decided to combine my two passions and will be running the  10K London Run on 11 July for The Friends of the Citizens Foundation dressed as a Pakistan cricket supporter.

I have been blessed to have had a great education. However, sadly the vast majority of Pakistanis are not as lucky as me. lags far behind other countries in literacy levels (as bad as our football team) with less than 50% having had any formal education.

The Citizens Foundation (TCF) is a charity in which builds and runs purpose-built schools providing quality education to over 92,000 students with a 50% female ratio. It costs just £12 a month to educate 2 children and therefore I would encourage you to donate generously so we can do our little bit in helping these children get the education they deserve. I would also encourage you to visit the Friends of the Citizens Foundation website at:

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a taxpayer.

So please dig deep and contribute your bit in achieving this target!!!
