My story
Hello,
So I'm back from the Sahara desert in one piece! And what a truly amazing experience. It was tough at times, but one of the best weeks of my life. We had an amazing group of people and we all kept each going during the hard days and, boy, did we laugh!
We were lucky enough to be joined by a couple of Manchester United legends - Denis Irwin and Andy Ritchie - during our week-long trek which raised money for the Manchester United Foundation (see bottom of this section for where your donation will go). If you missed my desert diary, check it out in the Fanzone section of ManUtd.com
A huge, huge thank you to everyone who donated... I really appreciate your support and the money will be going towards some really great causes.
The Manchester United Foundation not only raises money for UNICEF, but also raises funds for two national and four local charities:
- The Children's Society – Providing help for children who face the greatest danger, discrimination & disadvantage
- Cystic Fibrosis Trust – Funding research to treat, cure and support CF sufferers
- Rainbow House – Giving a brighter future to children with disabilities
- Christie's – Raising money for one of Europe’s leading cancer treatment centres
- New Children’s Hospital Appeal – Raising funds for Manchester’s new state-of-the-art Children’s Hospital
- Francis House - Giving respite for families by giving terminally ill children a loving home from home
