In October I shall be doing The Great Wall of China trek with the aim of raising as much as money as possible for Make a Wish Foundation Charity. The 65km trek over a 5 day period is not quite a walk in the park ... more like a challenge along twisting, winding and crumbling paths. Spurring me on will be the fact that 100% OF THE MONEY I RAISE WILL BE GOING TO A VERY WORTHWHILE CAUSE.
Make a Wish Foundation aims to grant magical wishes to children with either life-threatening or terminal illnesses. There are currently 20,000 children in the UK in this position. I believe these children deserve to experience the magic of Make a Wish, which can transform a child's life, or what remains of it.
£20 could pay for:
A sparkly tiara to turn a little girl into a princess for the day.
£50 will buy:
The special outfit for a boy who wants to be a soldier or fireman for the day.
£80 gives:
A family of four a swish lunch out and time to relax and enjoy each others company.
£150 could pay for:
A mini tuxedo for a boy wishing to be James Bond.
£200 will buy:
A magical swim with the dolphins at Florida's Discovery Cove.
£350 buys:
A VIP hospitality ticket for a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Old Trafford to see Manchester United play.
£1,000 pays for:
Family accommodation at Disneyland Paris.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. If you're a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
Please remember 100% OF THE MONEY RAISED WILL GO TO THE CHARITY so please sponsor me now! I'd like to thank you in advance. I hope you will help me support this highly worthy cause and help make some childrens' wishes come true. Thank you xxx
