Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.
On the 15th June 2008 I will be running my first Comrades Marathon, the worlds most prestigious ultra marathon, encompassing around 90km of road running, as part of a drive to raise funds for the Starfish Foundation, a South African charity that supports children who have been orphaned or made vulnerable by HIV/AIDS. All donations will go directly to Starfish, in an effort to continue bringing hope and opportunity to these children.
I am fortunate not only to participate in this event, but to support this very worthwhile charity. With our help, these children can grow up, achieve their dreams, and become contributing members to their society - our world - despite the hardships of their childhood.
Your kindness in contributing to their wellbeing and future is very much appreciated, every cent counts!!!
Many thanks for your support xxx
