My Story…
This is a very personal quest. After 7 weeks in hospital, it’s been a challenging rehabilitation. A major change in my life is a wheel chair. I’m participating, with the help and push of my family, in the 5k marathon. Wish me luck, please. 🤘✌️🎸♿️
My charitable contribution is to an old friend and collaborator, Doctors-without-Borders. We worked together decades ago on the development of their miraculous PlumpyNut emergency nutrition bars. They are not just the smartest, kindest and most skilled doctors and nurses saving lives, which they do every day. They are a highly innovative organization and the world needs more of Doctors-without-Borders.
So if you add your name to sponsor me, it is going to a most excellent cause.
Thank you, Stuart
Description
I have pledged to support Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF).
MSF is an independent emergency medical humanitarian organization that has more than 40,000 staff members working in humanitarian crises in close to 70 countries. Right now, MSF medical teams are saving lives all over the world. MSF would not be able to make such a difference in the lives of people caught in crises without the generosity of individual donors.
More than 95 per cent of MSF’s funding comes from private donations, rather than from governments or large institutions. This gives MSF the independence to act decisively and to go wherever the needs are greatest, without additional political pressure or interference.
I have decided to support MSF, and it would mean so much to me if you would consider supporting my fundraising goal. Each donation counts.
Together, we can help alleviate suffering and change lives.
Your generosity allows MSF teams to continue saving lives by delivering urgent care to people made vulnerable by disaster, conflict, disease or exclusion from healthcare.
Thank you for your support!
