Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online. As I now work for Cecily's Fund and am organising the 10k race team I'd better show them how its done and raise over the target!
£15 pays to keep an Zambian orphan in primary school for a year.
£30 pays for a year at secondary school.
It compares pretty well to a round in the pub and of course the after effects are infinitely preferable! Education is absolutely vital if these children born into poverty are to have any prospects of a decent life. Because of AIDS and other diseases, there are around 1 million orphans in Zambia. Without support they will grow up to be an uneducated under-class, lacking in confidence and highly vulnerable themselves to disease. Cecily's Fund offers them hope for a better life. Don't take it from me, take it from the World Bank man...
