Story

Soooo, my story......

I started a conversation at lunch with some work colleagues not long ago about wanting to fast this year for the month of Ramadan...as generally in the past I have struggled to do so....well I kept only a few generally :(
With that, one of my colleagues from the office, I won't mention any names, Laura Hawkins, laughed at me and said that there was no way I could keep any, especially as they were like 18 hours long...I, of course had already set in my mind that I was really going to try this year to keep as many as possible, if not, all of them!
She then went on to say 'I will pay you 50p for every day that you fast'...and I accepted the challenge!!...
One of the reasons I was going to fast was to see how people who are in that real situation of not having any food and are starving out there in the world felt, so as to make me appreciate more what I have...therefore I decided to donate the money to charity.
In the office, I quickly got a few others to join the sponsoring as it is for a good cause.....
So that is my story...you don't have to donate 50p per day, you can donate more or less, even just a small donation - as they say every little counts! I will also be donating some money myself as well as fasting, don't worry you don't have to do the fasting bit, I will handle that, I am making it easy for you by letting you just donate some money only ;)

In my culture we believe that when you give charity you receive blessings from the less fortunate...

So far so good - day 12!!!! :)
