Dear Friend, Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. I am very excited to have a place to run the London Marathon, 26th April 2009 for Christian Aid. Christian Aid helps the poorest communities around the world , whatever their race or faith. They tackle the causes and consequences of povery and injustice in nearly 50 countries, and are one of the best aid agencies as they use the money we give very efficiently and effectively. When I was an undergraduate, I imagined I would be out there in Africa or India, helping out on the ground. Life doesn't always work out to plan, but I have a chance here at least to do something practical to help. I will put in the pain and sweat, but I am asking you if you will give a contribution, whatever you can afford, to help me raise some funds for this great charity. I have been training since the end of October and Andy is organising my training schedule and those of you who know him, will know that this has been no picnic! Running more miles along the tow path, through all weathers, will be much easier if I know I have your support. Please donate what you can. Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Christian Aid 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 sponsor me now!
Lucy
