Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

On Saturday 13th June 2009, I jumped out of a perfectly good plane at 13,000 feet to raise money for a charity that I have been involved with for the past few years.

Why did I jump out of a plane? Well, I don't exactly have the body to run a marathon!

I'm asking that each dentist, please donate the equivalent of one UDA, and then tell you're favourite patient that you've donated the money from their check up to a great cause.

Bridge2Aid (B2A) is a charity working in the Mwanza region of North West Tanzania.

Bridge2Aid:

  • Provides primary dental care and education to communities in Tanzania.
  • Equips and trains local people as health personnel.
  • Cares for and empowers some of the poorest in Tanzanian society.
  • Provides opportunities for UK dental professionals and others to serve Tanzania.

    Even though my target is £400, it would be great if I could raise more! Double my target or even Triple it!

  • Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to donate to this cause: Bridge2aid gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

    So please donate now!
