Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Wes was born in South Africa and lived there until he was 10. We have visited several times in the last few years and have seen first hand the horrendous living conditions that affect so many South Africans. As a result we have chosen to donate to a South African Charity that "strives to build and ultimately transform the disadvantaged communities of South Africa which have been affected for decades by the ravages of extreme poverty, disease and the psychological effects resulting from these living conditions."

Any donation would be greatly appreciated no matter how small. Neither of us are particularly looking forward to running the half but it will definitely help knowing we are raising money for MaAfrika Tikkun.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thank you!!
