Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On the morning of Wednesday 9th June 2010 and Thursday 24th June 2010, while you will be at work or studying or even just waking up, we will be jumping out of a plane from 13,000ft to raise funds for The Urban Scholars.
The Urban Scholars
The Urban Scholars Programme is a University based intervention programme for over 200 12 to 14 year old students from inner-city schools. The project, based at Brunel University, is designed to provide potentially gifted and talented students from urban areas with the necessary academic skills, motivation and self-esteem to have high aspirations and greater achievement. The aim is to help them acquire high grades in their public examinations so that they can obtain places in universities and subsequently enter professions that members of their families may not have previously considered. This project seeks to find submerged talent in the inner cities, which is often masked by social disadvantage.
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 - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
So please dig deep and donate now.
Thank you all in advance for your generosity
