Hi my name is Ruben Carril and in 2005 I was in a terrible motorcycle accident where I was struck by a hit and run driver and forced under the wheels of a fully loaded gravel truck. I spent 6 months in the hospital before I came home with a broken pelvis among other serious injuries. One of my worst injuries is I lost my left leg at the hip.

The limbless association is a leading charity for people with limb-loss, helping their families, friends, carers and the industry and healthcare professionals who support them. They offer free, friendly and impartial information on all aspects of limb loss and provide a national “voice” for prosthetic patients.

On July the 18 2010 I will be jumping out of a perfectly good airplane in order to raise awareness and help inspire other amputees to know that after losing a limb it doesn’t have to mean its the end of the world, it can often mean the beginning of a new world.

The reason I am writing to you is to ask you for your support in raising money to help the limbless association which operates solely on donations and charity. My goal is to raise at least £2,000 to help the charity that helps others. It’s my way of giving back to the people who helped me.

          I ask you for your support in the way of a small financial donation, no amount is too small and I know that with your help I can at least meet, if not surpass my goal.  You can sponsor me by visiting this online fund raising page.


          You can pay by credit or debit card, and the money will go directly to The Limbless Association. Where supporters are taxpayers, the charity will automatically receive 28% extra in Gift Aid, which makes Justgiving the most efficient way of sponsoring me.



Thanks again and God bless,

Ruben
