Story

Allo.

Please sponsor me online.

This little webby thing here seems to be the easiest way for my chosen charity to get your cash (along with an extra 28% AT NO COST TO YOU if youre a UK tax payer).

Id appreciate any amount that youre able to give, but bear in mind that not only will your money go to a good cause, but youll also be directly responsible for putting me through such pain that only a marathon can inflict. Im sure youll agree that thats worth paying for...

You can choose to have the money taken either now (a "donation") or after the marathon on 18th April 2004 (a "pledge"). Either way, please do it ASAP so that I know where I stand regarding my totals.

If youd prefer not to use this (they take a cut if you claim the 28%, and you have to pay CC fees, but you DONT have to have your name displayed below), then you are more than welcome to arrange other means of getting the money to me or the charity (eg by cheque/post). However Id advise that this is the easiest way to get that tax money back, cut or no. As a rule of thumb, only use this site if youre donating less than 10 squid or will not have the opportunity to sign the gift aid declaration otherwise.

Again, many thanks. Oh, and feel free to mail me at sshaikh at Hotmail to claim your free gift (ahem ahem), or if there are any problems or questions or if you want to give me the cash directly.
Shak PS Please please PLEASE make sure you authorise the Gift Aid Claim. If youre a UK tax payer, its just a tick in a box when you donate. This will allow JustGiving to claim 28% MORE of your donation off the Government out of tax that YOU have already paid.
