On September 21st  I ran in the Windsor Half Marathon, a 13-mile stretch around London, coming in at just less than two hours. I aimed to raise a large sum for the Mango Tree Orphan Support Programme, a charity that looks after thousands of orphans in Kenya and Tanzania through a network of volunteers. This charity not only supplies food and clothes but also gives these orphans a start in life, with school entry and, if they do well, access to universities.

For more information, please see www.themangotree.org.

My target is ambitious, but hopefully we'll reach it together!

Thankyou so much,

Michael

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor: The Mango Tree Orphan Support Programme 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.
