Story
Hello everyone!
Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor us online as our team has committed to raise £1,500.
Over the 19th and 20th July 2008 we will be taking part in Trailwalker UK, which is a 100km (62 mile) hike from Petersfield to Brighton (along the South Downs Way) for teams of four - with only 30 hours to do it!
Here's how your money could help support the work of Oxfam and the Gurkha Welfare Trust:-
£5 could pay for two school textbooks
£10 could pay for fishing nets; one net could catch enough fish to support 80 people
£14 could buy a blackboard for a school classroom
£23 could pay for 10 Oxfam buckets which are specially designed to keep water safe and clean
£30 could pay for school dinners for 50 hungry children
£36 could provide safe water for 50 people
£50 could buy a donkey to ease the burden of carrying large loads over long distances (and provides free fertiliser!)
£100 could buy essential medicines for a whole community for six months
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Oxfam Trailwalker will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
So please sponsor us now!
Many thanks for your support.
