THE GREAT CAMBRIDGE JUMP - 6/3/2011
Hi! I've set this up to raise money for Hope for Children (HOPE). You might already be familiar with the organisation - HOPE is a charity that aims to help disabled, orphaned, poor and exploited children, in particular those living in developing countries. They work in over 30 countries including Sri Lanka, India, Uganda, Ghana, UK and China (Guangzhou).
On 6th March 2011, I will be forced out of a plane and drop towards the face of the Earth at speeds approaching 120 miles per hour. I go weak at the knees even at the sight of a theme park drop tower so I'll probably chuck up and die mid air this time. Reason why I've taken up this horrendous challenge: Hope for Children. To give you an idea, £25 provides one month's school supplies and transportation for a child in the Philippines. £20 will allow HOPE to monitor children in rural villages (Ghana) who are at risk of being trafficked. Even £5 will give a Sri Lankan child suffering from cancer the opportunity to travel to hospital for a month's treatment. I honestly feel so privileged to be here so please join me in doing something for the less fortunate.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’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’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
So please dig deep and donate now.
Costume ideas are welcome!
Donations in other currencies (eg. HKD) are accepted offline and will be converted and added to this page. :)
Hi! 我正在為Hope for Children (HOPE)籌款。這是一個為殘疾、孤苦、赤貧或被剝削兒童作國際性工作的慈善機構。HOPE已在超過三十個國家工作,包括斯理籣卡,印度,烏干達,加納等發展中國家。在中國廣州亦有教育貧窮、殘疾兒童與其家庭的工作。
2011年三月六日,本人將會被無情的推出一架飛機,以近每小時一百二十哩速度衝向地球表面。我只要看到跳樓機腳就會軟—可是為了Hope for Children,我豁出去了!請想想,只要 £ 25 就能為一位菲律賓兒童提供一個月的上學所需用品和交通。只要 £ 20 就能幫助HOPE的工作人員監察於加納村落裡可能被販運的兒童。即使是 £ 5 也可以支持一個小孩在斯理籣卡往返醫院接受癌症治療。生活所需不缺的我很幸福,希望你也同意,更可以為比我們不幸的小孩給點幫助!
於JustGiving捐款簡單、快捷亦安全。JustGiving絕不會出售你的個人資料或寄垃圾電郵。你所捐的款項會直接傳到慈善機構,Gift Aid的數目亦會計算在內。所以,籌得的款項會更多,更快,減少慈善機構的支出。請慷慨解囊!
不使用英鎊的朋友,可以直接給我其他貨幣(如港幣)。我會將數目轉為英鎊再以你的名義加到這裡。歡迎於Facebook聯絡我!:)
