My story

 

When you think of six beers and a cider the last thing that comes to mind would be driving an "old banger" worth no more than £250 through France, Spain and Portugal over 4 days, raising money for charity... but add six South Africans and a New Yorker into the equation and it starts to make sense. Well at least to us it does, and we're the ones doing all the driving!!!

Justin, Paul, Ryan, Tom, Sean, Dale, Jamie and Africa Bookcase - Gemini need your help to raise £1,000 for a good cause. We will be casting aside our favourite round of ice cold frosties mmmmmmmmmmm… sorry, drinks for a few days (well, only until the day's driving is over) so we can help out some of those in the world less fortunate than we are. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Africa Bookcase - Gemini 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.

Please dig deep and sponsor us online now, even the smallest amount will do a lot of good.

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page and don't forget to tell all your friends about us… and if you think they'll be willing to sponsor us, you can even tell the people you don't like!  After all, it's for a good cause.

Cheers!  Sante!  Salud!  Saude!
