My Story

Hi, thank you for visiting my personal fundraising page. On 25th January I am going to be pushing myself to the limit and running the Hong Kong 10K. I’m quite nervous as I know the event will be really tough! The only reason I signed up for this run (and I have questioned my sanity a few times!) is to support the work of Viva. These people do a really great job with very little funding and I know some of them personally. Viva helps vulnerable children as it seeks to inspire lasting change in their lives through the power of collective action. By encouraging and forming networks of churches and community organizations already involved with helping the children, Viva’s reach goes further and is more sustainable in bringing real, lasting change to situations of these children. You can find out more at www.viva.org Through simplygiving.com you can make safe and secure donations to sponsor me. The proceeds of your support are sent directly to Viva. Using this platform is really simple and most importantly it's also a really cost efficient way for the charity to raise funds. I am trying to raise an ambitious target of 10,000 HKD for vulnerable children, and together with a team of over 50 other Viva runners, we are trying to raise half a million HKD. Please dig deep and donate, every little bit counts! Seriously, anything helps... Thank you so much! Jacky

    Best of luck on Sunday! A quote from Parvo Nurmi - "Mind is everything. Muscles - pieces of rubber. All that I am, I am because of my mind."
