Charity
Cecily’s Fund helps Zambian children, who have been orphaned or made vulnerable as a result of HIV and AIDS, to get an education. Education is one of the most effective weapons in the battle against HIV, giving children vital information, support from teachers and friends and skills to help them earn a living after school. We enable nearly 10,000 children to go to school by providing uniforms, shoes, books, pens and other equipment, and paying school and exam fees. Once they graduate, we help some of them train as teachers and peer health educators so they can pass on life giving education to thousands more youngsters. For more information see our website www.cecilysfund.org.

London 10K
For the second time. I am running the London 10K race in July to try and raise some money for a fab charity called Cecily's Fund. This was set up by a friend of mine and her family to commemorate Cecily Eastwood (sister and daughter) who died in a road accident while teaching in Zambia on her gap year.
Cecily's Fund is a UK registered charity that enables more than 9,500 children who have been orphaned or made vulnerable because of AIDS to go to primary and secondary school, with the same uniforms and equipment as other children, so they are not stigmatised by their situation.
Through Virgin Money Giving, you can sponsor me and donations will be quickly processed and passed to charities. Virgin Money Giving is a not for profit organisation and will claim gift aid on a charity's behalf where the donor is eligible for this. I really appreciate all your support and thank you for any donations.
