Sahara Trek · 2 November 2012

Set up in memory of Rosie May Storrie, age 10, who was brutally murdered in 2003. The Rosie May Foundation is a little charity with a BIG vision committed to creating a living legacy for children, especially girls, giving them a future that Rosie May was denied. "Make A Difference Together"

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.</p> <p>In November the 3 of us will be donning our turbans and hiking boots&nbsp;to spend 6 days trekking across the Sahara (while avoiding snakes, insects and showers)&nbsp;to raise money for the Rosie May Memorial Fund Home for Tsunami Orphans.</p> <p>There are 20 girls currently living in the Rosie May Home in Sri Lanka and the money raised from this trek will help to support those orphans and give them a chance for a normal life in a loving environment. Just &pound;20 is enough to sponsor a girl for a month and the money raised by all 20 of us doing the trek will be enough to run the house for an entire year.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they&rsquo;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&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate -&nbsp;we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please&nbsp;donate whatever&nbsp;you can to support this worthy cause and keep an eye out for fund raising events which we'll be organising in future.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Charlotte, Katy &amp; Sonali</p> <p>xxx</p>
