Sponsor Me!

Filed under: Uncategorized — Maths Chick @ 10:53 am

I am running in the Race for Life in Regents Park in London on 19th July. This is to raise money for Cancer Research.  I have decided to try and raise money in this way, as I find running very challenging, but that is nothing compared to the challenges faced by anyone that has been affected by Cancer. I am sure we all have a friend or a family member who has suffered from this disease, and feel helpless most of the time. This is your turn to do something to help.

If you have ever used this website to help you find a resource, and found it helpful, maybe you could be kind enough to sponsor me a very small amount - every little helps. Even 50p would be great.

My online fund-raising page is: http://www.raceforlifesponsorme.org/caramorgan 

If you tick the “Gift Aid” box, we can raise even more money, so please don’t forget to do that.

Thanks so much if you decide to help.
