Update....

So I did it, and it was an amazing experience - The months of training were worth every second.

Thanks to everyone who kindly donated - I know the money will benefit the kids in ways you would not even imagine possible.

Naturally, feel free to continue to donate....

 

Thanks again,

Alain

Hello!

As you're probably aware, I've signed up to cycle from London to Paris in September, over 4 days. That's between 95 - 60 miles on consecutive days.

Now as fun as that sounds, it's all being done in the name of a very good cause. Citizens4Change are working very hard to improve the lives of those less fortunate than ourselves, and are currently working on a project to provide a school for the kids you see in the photo, located in Kenya.  They have set up a project to build a school for the street kids of Kisumu, Kenya, who currently reside on nothing more than landfill.

The money will be used towards purchasing the required land, the buildings, the desks, uniforms, pens, pencils and everything else you would normally take for granted. Every penny will be accounted for, and you can rest assured that it will be spent wisely.

I'm also covering all of the trip costs myself, so every penny of your donation will be going directly to the cause, and not lining any pockets.

All donations are very gratefully received, no matter how small.

The justgiving piece:
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: c4c 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!
