Charity Donation Fundraiser

During August we held a charity fundraiser event to collect donations towards the charities. I would like to say a huge thank you to everybody who attended or those who couldn't attend but still kindly donated. The grand total that you helped me raise at the event was : £2,100.00

This donation will be divided between the three charities,
(Rainbow Trust, WCS, Unicef)

PLEASE DONATE GENEROUSLY

The minimum amount of sponsorship required to take part in this event is £4,750.

The overhead cost is £3,250 and has been self funded. My wife Pen and I have sold various personal possessions since signing for this event to raise this amount. (Thank goodness for EBay!).

This means that every penny of sponsorship raised by pressing the Donate Button below will then go to the charites.

PayPal do take a small processing fee but without PayPal I would probably not be able to raise sponsorship from friends that I do not see very often (if at all!), due to where we all live.

Friends that I see regularly, please give me your sponsorship donations so we may avoid the Paypal processing fees!

Charities

The charities that will benefit from Enduro India are

UNICEF

UNICEF is leading the global Unite for Children, Unite Against AIDS Campaign. AIDS is threatening children as never before. The funds raised for UNICEF through Enduro India will be used in Karnataka which we will be riding through on route. The project which Enduro India is supporting is called ‘With Strength, Hearts and Mind’ and combats these issues through an integrated approach to HIV; preventing infection amongst adolescents, pediatric treatment, prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission and protection and support children affected by HIV/AIDS.

Rainbow Trust Children's Charity

Every year 10,000 families in the UK have a child diagnosed with a terminal or life threatening illness. No one expects to out-live their children. The news that your child may die shatters families.
Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity exists to provide a unique and special service to these families. Set up in 1986, they recognise that the parents, brothers and sisters of a dying child are often forgotten. They shouldn’t be. By offering non-medical, practical and emotional help, they aim to maintain a sense of normality, and keep families together.
EnduroIndia funds a post for a Family Support Worker in Rainbow Trust’s Swindon Team who provides hands on, practical and emotional support for families with a terminally ill child.

Wildlife Conservation Society

WCS promotes tiger conservation in India across its long term sites in India. Enduro India will help support tiger conservation in India.
