My story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Amos Trust is Umthombo's partner in the UK. All of your donations and gift aid will be collected by Amos and then passed onto Umthombo to help their work with street kids in Durban.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Amos 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.

I am covering all of the costs of the swim myself so you can rest assured that every penny donated will be passed on to my charities.

So please sponsor me now!
