Begging time again, people. Two of my friends (Chris and Jackie) from Uni are living out in Cairo and are involved in a fundraising project for CARE EGYPT - a non-profit making organisation that runs development programs in Upper Egypt focused on health and sanitation, women’s education, agriculture and micro-finance. If you would like to find out more about CARE’s projects in Egypt, please visit their website at: www.care.org.eg.
The Energy Challenge is a two-day event, involving hiking, camping, problem solving and teamwork. This year the event will be held in the Red Sea Hills inland from Hurgada. Chris completed the event last year and successfully raised over 2500 pounds for charity.
So if you are feeling charitable as we head towards the festive season, head over to http://www.justgiving.com/chrisbirt and hand over some cash, all of which will be doubled by BP. Just think how far that pocket change that you were going to spend down the pub could go in saving lives…
