To date (27th August), approximately £500 has already been raised for Daphne's sponsored walk from Assisi to Rome. We are hoping to at least double that amount by the time the walk is completed.
Today July 29th I received my first response to the Sponsored Walk forms I sent out a few days ago. The cheque I received was for an amazing £100 and I am delighted and feel hopeful now of a fairly good response in the near future.
At the moment I have another 24 children on my books in need of sponsoring. School fees for children are needed by the end of November in order to get the money out to S.Africa sometime in December to be paid in early January which is the beginning of the school year out in S.Africa.
