Chucking the missus out of a plane at 13,000ft-for CHARITY-sponsorship appreciated

[Grandad]

Last September my Brother's wife and my wife's best mate Angie died of cancer at the age of 41

Cheryl ( my missus ) wants to raise money for cancer research in her memory and had decided to do a 13,000ft skydive over the Mojave desert ( near the Nevada/Arizona border ) on 7th June

If anyone would like to sponsor her and help a good cause it would be greatly appreciated, no amount is too small

Every penny raised will go to the charity as I am paying all costs involved ( sometimes the charity ends up funding the event, this is not the case here )

If you are a UK tax payer the government will also contribute tax relief through gift aid

You can sponsor her here

All donations greatly appreciated, if you can't afford it then a couple of words of encouragement in this thread would also be nice

Thanks

I'll see if I have any spare monies after Sakuras facelift, but good luck from me anyway!

Hehehe good excuse to eat more pies But you are contributing by paying the costs as a lot of the time the sponsor money has to cover these, and it usually ends up just doing this (in my experience) and nothing goes to the charity.

Of course, it's a very nice gesture

Thanks
