My story

Hello!

Thanks so much for getting this far.

We're really excited about supporting Pump Aid. Have a read of this brilliant article in The Times to get a good idea of what they're doing and the kind of impact they're having on people in Malawi: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/specials/times_appeal/article5247678.ece.

We've put £500 as our target because that will pay for all the materials and building of an Elephant Pump. Every day this pump will provide 250 people with 40 litres of clean drinking water EACH! Impressive.

Right, here's the technical bit:

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

Thank you so much again. We hope to see you in Eardisland Church on April 25th!

Love Alex and Piers xxx
