My story

 

Hello!

I made it!!

I have just returned from walking 100km across the Namibian desert to raise money for the Fredericks Foundation. The challenge was immense and without your support it would have been difficult to keep going but here are a few pics of the obstacles we met along the way.

If you haven't yet sponsored me and are able to, I would be hugely grateful. The Fredericks Foundations is a charity which helps individuals to become self sufficient who might otherwise not be able to support themselves by providing micro finance funding, mentoring and support.

The charity itself has one of the lowest overhead rates of any charity and has a 75-85% payback on the money it loans, meaning not only that the projects its supports are thriving and their owners gain real independence but that donations it receives are recycled over and over again.

Thanks again for all your support  and see you soon.

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