dog_4 Posted 16 February 2012 Posted 16 February 2012 The 20th July 2012 myself and several others will be taking part in charity bike ride from Leicester to Skegness for Wishes 4 Kids! In 2010 the same group did the same thing and raised just over £2200, in the process we did raffles,dress down days and personal sponsorships in and around our workplace. Wishes 4 kids is a small based charity in the centre of our city and needs all our help to help continue doing its great work. This year we would obviously like to raise more, below are the details of the charity,link to our facebook page (please like) and details for you guys and girls to txt a donation, how ever large or small if you wish too. Facebook page - http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Leicester-to-Skegness-2012-Charity-Cycle-Ride/174661262645270 Text to donate details - TEXT LTOS99 £Amount donated to 70070 to sponsor our ride! All support appreciated! Details of charity and official website - Wishes 4 Kids has been created to grant a wish for children and youngsters in Leicestershire who are life limited, terminally ill, have experienced life-changing physical or emotional traumas, have suffered major abuse or are diagnosed as HIV Positive. The Charity grants wishes for those of eighteen years and below. Wishes 4 Kids has already granted hundreds of wishes for local children. Sadly we do not have a magical cure for the suffering of these youngsters, however, we can bring a short period of respite. The time when a child has a wish granted is a moment that will be treasured by them for the rest of their life. It is also a time which parents will remember - that time when their child forgot the suffering. http://wishes4kids.co.uk/home.html Just £1 each could raise 100's to 1000's for this great local city charity, please donate and Thank you so much.
