We’re closing in on the £900 mark with the fundraising – which means we’re past the 2/3rds mark! Theres now under 3 weeks to go and there are still plenty of people that i’ve talked and written too who haven’t donated, so fingers crossed the total should hit the £1250 mark…
To drum up the cash I’ve been trying to email small groups of people rather than sending out one mass impersonal email – i’ve sent out one to the folks at work, one to guys I play football with, one to my friends back home etc. etc. The guys from work have come through for me – not suprising as they have to listen to me talk about it all day. Nat, Amanda, Gav, Jason and Sean have all made donations. Special mention goes to Simon who donated a massive £52 – thats £2 for every mile! Wow! After I saw Michelle in the gym last weekend she was the first of the Corpora old school to make a donation – Thanks! The rest of them are too busy popping out babies every two minutes to donate just yet… Last weekend we met up with Cat and Clara and they’ve both made a donation through the magic of Facebook events, plus I think they’re both coming along on the day too! On the sunday Gemma’s grandparents also gave me a cheque which helped cheer me up as their house is full of better gadgets than we own!
Thanks to everyone who has donated money since the last update!
