My story

 

Hello all!

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

Yes, I know what you're thinking....that crazy girl is off her rocker!...a marathon???  BUT I did it!!!! yes my little legs carried me round the entire 26 miles yesterday in London in a total of 4 hours, 10 minutes and 13 seconds!!! And it was soooo much fun! A few things helped me round the course.....knowing that I had so much support behind me and also reminding myself of the great work that Skillshare International do and where all the money you have kindly donated would go. So an extra thank you to everyone who has helped me so far. I know we can still raise a little more, so please sponsor me retrospectively to help me beat my new target.

Skillshare International's vision is of a world without poverty, injustice and inequality where people, regardless of cultural, social and political divides, come together for mutual benefit, living in peaceful co-existence.

That statement alone is so inspiring.....I became familiar with Skillshare's work many years ago and I have been a great supporter ever since. Skillshare is a development organisation working in partnership with other organisations across the globe to improve the quality of life of populations in developing countries. They help establish sustainable projects for health, infrastructure development, education and environment improvement. Take a look at their website.....www.skillshare.org

Please dig deep and sponsor me online. I am so grateful for all your support.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Skillshare International will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now, whatever you can! Every little helps!
Thankyou,

Maddy
