Story

A huge thank you from Team Sasquatch for visiting our fundraising page and giving generously.

We're 8 fairly amateur boarders who decided to set up a charity snowboarding challenge whilst on holiday last year. Linking turns which always helps when you're flying down a mountain trusting your life to a bit of fiberglass and your legs was a new addition to some of the group last year and the rest are just plain crazy. We're venturing to unfamiliar teritory, to Breckenridge in the states, where none of us have boarded before so, as you can see it's a big challenge for us all to hit.

Collectively board 600k in 5 days - the distance from Edinburgh to London!

Our determination and passion for the challenge is huge so please dig deep to encourage us.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us. The trip has been paid for by the group so all monies raised will go directly to Make-A-Wish Foundation
UK who help grant wishes for terminally ill children.  By donating through this site today, Make-A-Wish 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.

So please start the big sponsor snowball now. It's a cause very close to all our hearts. Sadly the liklihood of reaching adult life for the children of the Make A Wish foundation is slim, they may not get the chances we have to fulfil ambitions and dreams so please, help us raise £3000 so we can together grant the wishes of terminally ill children. We're looking for corporate sponsors too, so If you think what we're doing is good, if not slightly crazy, then please help us today.

Many thanks for your support,

Sasquatch!

 ps we'll be uploading a blog soon so you can all read about how we've been getting on with our fundraising. Keep an eye out for the amusing pics!
