Great Edinburgh Run 2008 · 4 May 2008 ·

HoverAid hovercraft reach remote rural communities in the developing world, enabling aid, development, relief, and church organisations to reach people who are otherwise completely inaccessible. It's a vital link, bringing hope to communities along shallow rivers, through swamps, and during floods; transporting doctors, enabling education programmes, and supporting local initiatives.

Story

Hoveraid is trying to raise £5000 to fund a team of 30 Korean doctors and surgeons who are going to spend time in August working in communities along the Mangoky river in Madagascar. Its one of the poorest and most remote regions in the country with 80% of people below the poverty line and very high levels of malnutrition. The doctors will be looking at everything from TB to hypertension, blharzia to bullet wounds. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Hoveraid Trust will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you. Many thanks for your support.
