A Charity event
Hi all,
I got an e-mail this morning and thought what better way to spread the word was add it to my blog.
Take a look and if you feel you can help out, I pass on my thanks.
The No Laughing Matter - Comedians Three Peaks Challenge
--------------------------On June 30th and July 1st a bunch of comedians from the UK circuit will be attempting to climb the three highest peaks in Britain. These three peaks are Ben Nevis in Scotland, Scafell Pike in the Lake District, and Mount Snowdon in Wales.
To make it more exciting and challenging they have to complete the climb of all three within 24 hours. It involves about 25 miles of walking, over 3,000 metres of ascent and about 11 hours of driving time.Why are we doing it?Well we just thought it would be a bit of a laugh of course. But the event is also being run as a fundraiser for Act4Africa. They work in Tanzania and Uganda to provide relief to AIDS victims and their orphaned children along with the equally important task of running educational programs to teach people how to avoid AIDS in the first place.Who is involved and how do we find out more?The No Laughing Matter comedians have their own website including photos and video clips of their preparations for the big weekend. You can also find links on the site to learn more about Act4Africa and hopefully support our efforts by even making a donation to sponsor us if you can. We have had a goal set for us of raising £1000 per comedian which of course if achieved will be a huge amount of support to the AIDS victims in Africa.

Also, if you want to make yourself feel a lot better by giving a donation to make the world a better place, then be sure to click on the "DONATE" link which will take you to the Act4Africa site. If you are able to make a donation then please could you also send an email to Act4africa@aol.com saying how much you've given on behalf of the comedians. This will help to let the charity keep track of our goal.
