Hello,

Now that we've helped the 24 Peaks team reach their goal (yay!), and Rufous survived the marathon (hurrah!) I thought it might be a good idea for other people needing donations to list them here. Some of you have gotten lost in the craziness and it's only fair your goals are met and charities helped too.

Even if your links are in your signatures can you list them here? (Some of us block signatures.)

I know Stooz and Mark are both doing bike rides, Whitby was doing something (has that happened and we missed it?), Eli is off to Peru soon, Phil H is off south of the equator too.

I know if they're all in one place it'll make it easier for me to donate. AND today's pay day...

Thanks and good luck!

Michelle

[Neil Diamond]

Good idea Michelle. I've stickied it as well to make it easy for people to find.

[GJ Michelle P]

Cheers m'dear!

[Captain K]

There is something in the pipeline...

...it'll involve Joinees...

...there's some discussion in this thread already...

...but we haven't quite gotten the announcement ready yet because we'd been asked to wait to make sure the 24 Peaks people were completely happy first.

So, basically, there'll be an invitation to everyone to get involved in something in a few days.

It becomes more like school here every day...... "Wait to see if the 24 peaks people were entirely happy"? With what? Are they going to check that every note and copper coin is real now too?

And if anybody wants to help me out for this weekend, I'm doing a run for Testicular Cancer. Running my bol**cks off

(I've reached my target for my bike ride, so I'm happy for any monies to go to others rather than towards that now)

[GJ Michelle P]

That was my point entirely--people get fixated on one and the others get left in the dust.

Glad to hear your bike ride target is met (I tried a few times to donate but the site didn't like me). I'll try again with for run this weekend. Good luck on both!

[Joinee Ashley]

Hi all

I'm doing a charity run on wednesday after work in exeter, its only a 5k run (I say only in comparison to all the charity events, but my knees will be killing me after)

norwich union (my work) will match what I have raised to give to michelmores,
info about the run

if anyone fancied sponsoring me I would be most grateful, money is being raised for CLIC sargent, for children with cancer lukemia,
so far I have raised £180 from people at work

thanks
have a great weekend all!

I have also set up a justgiving accout, although this goes directly to the charity & so my work won't match it

In what's a slightly similar thing to this project, a group of comedians with a few people I know in it are climbing Ben Nevis, Snowdon and Scafell Pike in 24 hours. Yikes.

Anyway, here's the page of one of them: http://www.justgiving.com/vinceatta

I couldn't even consider doing anything like this; completely insane.

I could use some dough too. (see eliaroundtheworld.spaces.live.com for details on En Camino, my project for this year, starting on 7/7/07!)

Shameless, I know, but a dudette's gotta do what a dudette's gotta do for Peru...

Can't make your website address work, Eli. It just comes up with access denied, even when I copy and paste it. Any ideas? Mum White.

Looks like she missed a "d" in "around".

Yup, there was a "d" missing! Thanks for pointing that out and thanks for your interest in what I do

Looks like I'm back after all, as matters have been settled. Thanks. (you know who you are.)

Thanks

[joinee Éli]

This lot of extremely talented of actors-activists (http://vichama.blogspot.com) need support for their tour in Asia. They were given fundings only for their airfares and life in Korea costs a freakin bundle. They're thinking about making t-shirts here (Peru) and selling them abroad. E-mail me if you'd like to contribute:)

Thanks

[Joinee Mum White]

Bother! I think I may have just put my request for sponsorship in the wrong place. If any one is interested, it is in the random acts of kindness section, sorry. Mum White.

http://www.justgiving.com/mumwhite or here! gosh, I'm getting so excited now. Some people have sponsored me already! How cool is that!

Hello all,

am attempting to raise £2000 for the British Horse Society by doing a week long trek in Jordan in April.

the details are to be found under this magic button.

I also hope to be doing some fundraiser-y type things over the winter - the money needs to be with the BHS by Feb(!). If anyone has any ideas / wouldn't mind helping please do let me know. This is my first ever attempt at fund raising, so I'm a little nervous I won't make it!

Thank you everyone.

D. xx

A friend of mine at work is running 10k for Cancer Research in a couple of weeks, at Weston Park in Staffordshire.

It's quite a feat, and he did the same last year.

On february 3rd I'll be doing an ultra marathon, 40 miles, in aid of the Myriad centre in Worcester. It's a fairly new charity providing day care for young adults with profound learning disabilities.

Hello all,

I need your help!

I am doing a charity cycle ride for MAG (The Mines Advisory Group) in June, and have a hefty sponsorship amount to raise.

On the 6th June I will leave London to cycle to Amsterdam, then onto Brussels for the 8th June. That's quite a trek, I'm sure you will agree.

I need donations, but that's not the only way you can help, I will also be extremely grateful if you can offer unwanted Christmas presents, offers of service, or any other items I can use as raffle prizes or auction lots.

More information can be found on my web site: www.challengebee.org

More information on MAG can be found on their website: www.mag.org.uk
Essentially they visit areas of recent conflict and help clear mines, disarm weapons and rebuild communities affected.

Thank you for your generosity. Any questions, just email me at matt@challengebee.org

And if anybody wants to help me out for this weekend, I'm doing a run for Testicular Cancer. Running my bol**cks off

That's a really good cause!

I've never posted about this before because i've never even thought about it until I had to find a picture for the Hollyoaks thread today.

I lost my grandad just before I was born to cancer, and although i'm yet to do anything major, where I can (proceeds from non-uniform days [doesn't sound much but it's a grand per non-uni], sponsored walks etc.) I try to use school-council and personal clout to steer some of the the money towards Everyman (normally unsuccessfully actually - school council is v. unimaginative with where we send money - it's always the same predictable [though worthwhile] charities)

This normally gets into the papers and magazines through celebrities doing their bit for them (ok - normally stripping off), but male cancers are under-diagnosed, which is why I'm really strongly for this charity.

Everyman Clicky

Although a lot of their ideas for you are sport-based, like any charity, they accept funding from most things. They're currently looking for runners for the Edinburgh Marathon 2008 and a few other things.

If anyone does want to help with any of that, it's a great charity, although I know we already support a lot of them.

I might try and plan something for next year. Hmmm... that's got me thinking now.

Edit:
I've found a donate page.

Everyman - Donate

And I've just started planning something which could, potentially, be very good.

can I also just say if anyone out there is thinking 'I'll sponsor her for one of them' and neither of the carities means more to them than the other (both deserving ones in my oppinion) can you bare in mind that I have to raise £350 for the great north run but I have no obligation to reach any amount for the race for life.

Thanks

There's a lad running the Bupa 10k for the charity Shelter at work with me.

He started a Justgiving site and mailed everyone at work but they just tend to get lost in the general deluge of nonsense, and so he's just been round with a paper based sponsor form.

I'm going to kick his online donations off now, and I just thought I'd bring it to people's attention in case it's a charity they support.

Hi guys and gals! I'm doing the Pants in the Park 5k run this Sunday in Leeds for Prostate UK, and I was wondering if people could help me out!

[Silver Joinee Johnson (GA)]

Hello,

On 4 September, I'm going to be running 11 miles in the Scottish/English Borders. This is going to be particularly challenging for me this year as I've only started training for it this week, after not being able to exercise for 4 months due to a bad back.

Anywhoo, if any of you lovely people would like to sponsor me, then head towards www.justgiving.com/peebledashers (sorry, don't know how to make it clicky)

Ta very much.

Ben (SJJ(GA))

[Joinee Fray]

Hello hello.

As I've mentioned and blatantly name dropped lately, there's a sponsored bicycle jaunt happening in December that I'm quite excited about. So is Chris Hoy, he said so himself.

We're riding for the RNLI, and apparently we are 'justgiving'. We're going from Weston-super-Mare (near Bristol) to Poole, across the channel and all around Normandy taking in what we can and being a nuisance.

If you want to furnish us with money, or just want to read up a bit more, please go here:

http://www.justgiving.com/ridenormandy

We'll be updating it now and then, I'm fairly sure it's going to be a funny few months.

Thanks

Fray.x

EDIT: Just thought I'd update a little. We've been going it at hard for a week or so now, speaking to press and whatnot. Everything is going pretty grand and already we're scratching around the £500 mark so uber thanks to everyone who has helped us out

Hello. Those shoes are amazing! Gucci, surely?

I'm doing a 5k sponsored run in Liverpool on the 7th December, dressed as Santa!! This is a big step for me as I am useless at exercise and it may turn my occasionally runs into a more permanent thing! I'd love to be able to go the great north run one day, but baby steps hey?

Anyway, I am running for The Scoliosis Association as they are a charity very close to my heart. As much as I enjoy being a cyborg, I'd love to prevent it from happening to someone else as it can be a bit of a pain (quite literally).

If anybody feels like they wish to donate, this is a link to my JustGiving Site.

Or if anybody wishes to support me (and I need all the support I can get), my facebook group is here.

Thanks for listening!

Edit: Because links are hard!

Hey all,

Myself and a close friend are doing a charity Jailbreak. This does not mean i'm breaking out of jail, what it does mean is that we are starting in Bangor, North Wales, and getting as far as we can from that point in 36 hours, with out spending ANYTHING on travel. some people have made it as far as morocco and tenerife by blagging their way onto airliners so we're looking to do as good as/better than them.

Haven't decided what charity we're going to do it for, because it's still in the planning process, but i'll keep you updated if you'd like to sponsor us

all the best,

Joe x
