Story
The Max Imhoff Scholarship
In memory of Max, his wife, Helen, has set up the Max Imhoff scholarship fund to help underprivileged children who are hoping to study a science subject at university. This was something Max was very keen on when he was working in Mwanza. In Tanzania you often find very able students coming into the sixth form from a local school, usually on some funding, who are able to get a place at university through having good grades but might have some financial hardship when taking up the place. So the scholarship can help with their accommodation costs, travel and text books. The students chosen will be Tanzanian and the money will go directly to the student, no middle man or agent.
I will be running the Purbeck marathon in September to raise money for this scholarship. If you would like to sponsor me and contribute towards this project/ fund please write your name on the form below

7 years agoDear all, thank you very much for your support for the Max Imhoff memorial fund. Your generosity is greatly appreciated and will benefit some children in Tanzania. My just giving page was closed and I couldn't reopen it but I have started a new one and have continued to receive some very kind donations so I should be very close to reach the target. The training continues and I am nearly ready to complete this tough 26.2 mile course! Many thanks again for your kindness, Carlos
