Thanks for visiting our fundraising page for the 2009 Great Manchester Run!
This year Neil Cook, Rob Black, Graham Turner and Dave Hursthouse from Express Gifts IT department are running in support of the Isaiah Trust.
Nicky & Tim who we work with started this registered charity back in 2001 to help children in Kenya orphaned by Aids and surviving on their own on the streets in some of the most appalling conditions imaginable... Scavenging on rubbish tips for food, subject to all kinds of physical and sexual abuse with their only comfort a glue bottle... More info can be found on their fantastic work at www.isaiahtrust.org .
The lives that these kids endured prior to the charity beggars’ belief but the Trust has and continues to do some amazing things for these kids... Providing outreach centres to give a safe haven, giving remedial education, setting up orphanages and foster parent programmes. The Trust is now working hard setting up farms to establish a sustainable food program which could be self supporting over a three year period.
The trust has helped change the lives of so many kids but there are so many more yet to help... Please help by sponsoring me here or by making a donation via the donation page on their website and don't forget to gift aid it if you're able. Every penny raised goes direct to their aid programmes out there.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Isaiah Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
So please sponsor us now!
With HUGE THANKS on their behalf!
Neil, Rob, Graham and Dave
