Beaujolais Nouveau Marathon · 2 July 2008

TB Alert is the UK’s national tuberculosis charity: the only charity that focuses on TB both in the UK and overseas. This gives us a unique perspective in order to address issues around TB that are common both to low incidence countries like the UK and high incidence regions such as Africa and Asia.

Story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page. We are raising money for the tuberculosis program at Murambinda Mission Hospital in rural Zimbabwe. This is a really worthy cause - curing TB is one of the single most effective health interventions, even in the presence of HIV, allowing people to get back to work and to look after their families.

More information about the program can be found at http://www.fmh.org.uk/ or http://www.tbalert.org/projects/zimbabwe/murambinda.php. We all successfully completed the Beaujolais marathon on the 22nd of November but we're still trying to reach our target.  

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: TB Alert 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!
