having some fun raising for allowah

in a week time, i'll be running for city2surf. it's my first time ever. i've been training alright so far, i think, trying to increase my stamina level. last week, i managed to run roughly an hour (with 2 x 3 mins of down time walking) for 7 kms. city2surf is a 14 kms community running event, which will off-course be tougher when you're running on road as compared to on the treadmill (i know.. i know..)

i was thinking to raise some fund for Allowah. and since it wasn't registered as a charity by the organiser, i was trying to arrange that with both the organiser and the children hospital. things do take a while, and shall i wait much longer, i'll be a little tight with the remaining time. i did intend to raise the fund only in a week time prior to running (besides, if people intend on donating, chances are they'll do it straight away or never. it would be the case for me, at least, otherwise i'll never manage if i'm to leave thing behind).

as i was trying to browse for my selected charity today, i still could not find it in the webpage, but that doesn't matter, and it'll be pointless for me to chase the organiser at this stage (perhaps next year is a better opportunity). so, i am now trying to do things a little different. if you can make any donation, no matter how big or small, it will make a difference, leave room for generosity.

here is how.

1) go to allowah and the online donation-page websites. have a read, see if you're having an inclination to support their cause. allowah is redeveloping their site to cater for more patients.

2) if you'd like, just before you proceed with the online payment, you can put in these details. this way i can send a proper thank-you note (or borrow you my cd for free! alright, i hope i'll be more creative than this at some stage).








perhaps i'll hear from you my dear friends, thank you in advance!
