Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On Thursday 9th August 2012 I shall be participating in a life long dream of doing a Skydive for charity. The charity I have chosen to jump for is the US Chesed Bursary Fund.

The US Chesed Bursary Fund is a special charity that has been set up to help the children of families who are under real financial pressure attend and enjoy well organised Day and Summer Camps in the UK and/or on a life – changing trip to Israel together with their friends, all in the hope that these families will foster a life – long love for Judaism and Israel.

What has encouraged me to do this insane act of jumping out a plane from a few thousand feet is that I know that all monies raised will help to ensure that no child misses these important experiences. In the current economic climate, with many families struggling to provide the basics, the need to provide grants is even greater than ever.

Thank you so much for your donations.... pictures will be put up at a later date!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. 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 UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
