Why I have invited you to visit my fundraising page and sponsor me:

I believe that ALL children born in to this world should have a shot at life...to become the best they can be...to have love and security and feeling of belonging...unfortunately at the moment that only happens to a very lucky miniscule few whilst many forgo childhood all together just to survive and exist...and worst of all....through NO fault of their own....

I AM ANGRY that 66% of all people killed in war are children 

EVERY YEAR 1000's OF CHILDRENS LIVES ARE TORN APART BY WARS THEY DID NOT CHOOSE TO BE PART OF

I AM OUTRAGED - many more are left emotionally and physically traumatised, orpahned and displaced from their families and communities, forced to take up arms and become child soldiers - their lives are shattered by being hit by a combination of war, poverty and marginalistion in the world's most dangerous war zones.

I FIND IT UNACCEPTABLE THAT CHILDREN CONTINUE TO BE VICTIMS OF WAR

I WANT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT... DO YOU? Not just a one-off helping hand but something that will lay the foundations for a future in which chidren are helped to piece together their shattered lives and secure for themselves a future full of hope and smiles.

YOU TOO CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT - GET INVOLVED by helping me raise money for War Child - please sponsor me today!

£1.30 can provide a street child with 3 meals a day

£5 can enroll an orphan in school and buy school materials for a whole year

£10 can provide a life saving malaria treatment for a child

Thank you!
