Hello! So the fast ended at 7pm today (Thursday) - and it was a bit of a struggle in those last few hours! Big thank you to those who have already sponsored me. If you haven't sponsored me yet, it's not too late - this page will remain open to take sponsorship for a few more months. Thanks Rima Hi guys Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. Yes it's true....... you have read it right........ I'm going to do a 24 hour sponsored fast! Yes, no eating for 24 hours!!!!! You'll be glad to hear that there is a good reason for this madness .......... I'm raising money for the charity CINI UK which helps poor women and children in India. The fast starts at 7pm on 9th July and ends at 7pm on 10th July. *NOTE NEW DATE* Your donation and support will be gladly received.... any amount is appreciated as it all makes a difference.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Child In Need Institute (CINI UK) 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.
So please sponsor me now! Thank you! Rima xx Info about the charity CINI UK: Women in India are 80 times more likely to die in childbirth than women in the UK. One in every thirteen children born in India dies before the age of six, with more than half of these deaths related to malnutrition.
CINI UK is doing fantastic work to change this situation, substantially reducing the maternal mortality rate in areas where it has projects and actually halving rates of child malnutrition in areas where it has been operating over a period of five to seven years. More information about this work can be found at www.ciniuk.org
