World Jewish Relief

World Jewish Relief (WJR) provides a crucial lifeline to Jewish people in need around the world. With your support, we can help them overcome appalling poverty, despair and isolation. Moreover, through our commitment to long-term programmes which strive to enhance community infrastructure, people can go on to build a better future for themselves. WJR is dedicated to fighting human suffering and serving the urgent needs of, primarily but not exclusively, Jewish communities who are at risk or in crisis (outside the UK and Israel). With our Jewish lifeline we are helping thousands survive the most devastating hardships.

My story

I DID IT! I've cycled 300 km to Amsterdam and have had one of the best experiences of my life. It was a real challenge, but such a wonderful way to do something you've never done, and to raise money at the same time just feels amazing. You'll be pleased to know I can still walk and will be looking into my next long cycle it was that good! I did manage to knock one of my fellow riders who was also raising money for World Jewish Relief, off his bike. He's still talking to me which is good.

Thank you so much for your sponsorship so far and if you'd like to give more, i'm still trying to reach my target. Have a look at the pictures - I went through the 'rolling' Essex Countryside, then onto a ferry going to the Hook of Holland, where i got to see the North Sea Cycle Route ( a cycle path along the coast of France, Belgium and the Netherlands) It was beautful! My sprained ankle was sore, but I managed!

The sponsorship money you raise will help us extend a Jewish lifeline to people living below the poverty line in countries as diverse as Belarus, South Africa and Argentina. You sponsoring me to do this cycle will not only help my tired legs at the end of it, but also leave you safe in the knowledge that some of the world's struggling communities will benefit as a direct result of your generosity. Please do give as much as you can - it will be hugely appreciated.

Thank you,

Natalie
