My story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

A big welcome from the brave team of skydivers who’ll be jumping for poverty on Saturday 14th November at Cambridge Airfield!

The money we raise will be donated to Community Links. This is an innovative charity which runs practical community based projects in east London to reduce povety and raise aspirations.

The jumpers are:-

Ainslie McLennan

Cameron Fraser

Nick Deacon

Michael Sales

Andy Rich

Nawaz Mohamed

Katherine Pye

Andrew Friend

Jayson Egan

George Sales

Martin Payne

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.

Every penny you raise will make a great difference to tackling poverty and extending opportunities to children and vulnerable people in East London. These are just some of the ways your funds can help transform lives, for example…

 £5 will pay for equipment such as volleyball nets, footballs and educational board games for the youth team to use in their work with young people on housing estates.

£10 will contribute to toys and educational games in our early years centres and open access play centres which provide safe and inspirational spaces for local children.

£20 will pay for an advice worker to go out into the community and reach the most vulnerable: giving a one-hour advice session on housing, debt or financial literacy and changing lives for the better.

£50 enables us to find the best ideas for practical community projects and share them with thousands of local groups and charities, transforming lives across the UK.

£100 helps develop young people through youth forums and steering groups, creating local junior leaders who gain skills for life and are empowered to help others in their community.

So please dig deep and dontae now.
