About my charity : Take Heart Limited Take Heart Limited
Take Heart is a youth run charity focused on practical education projects in India. Take Heart aims to find and develop the talent and potential in every individual we work with. We are relatively unique in the charity sector for two reasons: 1. We do not employ a single person which means that 100% of proceeds are directed out to our education projects in India. 2. We run with the leitmotiv ‘Work builds, charity destroys’. Rather than giving money we aim to empower people through practical education. Although Take Heart was founded in 1963, in 2004 the charity was renewed with a youthful drive and targeted focus. Since 2004 Take Heart has built an English language and IT school that has provided real job opportunities to over 1000 students. It costs just £37 for us to train a blind student in IT skills that will guarantee them a job for life. Your support in whatever way is greatly appreciated and is sure to have a positive impact on the lives of the less fortunate. Take Heart, Take Action...

My personal message:

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

I am running the Sheffield Half Marathon on Sunday 27th April.

Please dig deep and sponsor me online. I am hoping to raise money for Take Heart India. During my visit to India on my Gap Year I was shocked by the number of people, especially children, I saw begging on the streets. This charity aims to educate and teach skills to underprivelidged people in India, so that they can learn how to earn a living, rather than have to beg.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Take Heart Limited will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
