Story

I'm going to South Africa for a few weeks in July/August and two of the things on my To Do list were:

• Great White Shark Cage Diving, and
• Bloukrans Bridge Bungee.

The bungee jump is the highest commercial bridge jump in the World, at 216m (709ft), about a 7 second drop.

What all this means is that I'm nuts.  But also, it is an opportunity to raise a bit of money for those not so well off in South Africa.

GlobalGiving is a charity that funds projects all across the World.  The one I have chosen to support is the Hope Football Academy for vulnerable children.  The Academy mentors children, visits their homes, helps with their education and develops their football skills.
