Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page/link.

I am going on a trek to the Himalayas in September. I rank the gift of sight at the top of all our other senses. Give someone that chance from as little as £5!. I am hoping to raise some money for SEFE, an eye charity based here in the UK. The previous trek to Mt Kilimanjaro raised around £35000 which contributed significantly towards the completion last year of a brand new super – specialty eye hospital in Anand, Gujarat. Please help us raise funds towards our next hospital projects in the states of Punjab & Uttar Pradesh. Our total target is £20000. For more information please go to www.sankaraeye.com.

97% of all monies raised goes directly to the end user. Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Sankara Eye Foundation Europe gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
