Some really good news. A school in Nelspruit heard about the voting for Lauren etc and published a bit about her in their school news letter. I received a phone call this morning from the school to advise that the pre-primary school had held a cake sale and the children amongst each other decided that the money raised must go to Lauren/CHOC. R1000 towards such a worthy cause!!

 

absolutely thrilled - again, she may not have won the award but the 'after effects' have been incredible!!

Hi all

 

As promised an update.

 

At the Mr Price KZN Cycling Club awards evening held on Saturday Lauren was awarded a trophy for her 3rd overall place in the u16 league but...

 

they also presented a special award to her in recognition for her continuous fundraising efforts and putting others first. She was so shocked/surprised when they called her up on the stage!

 

Two weeks ago she received a donation from Penryn Preparatory school in Nelspruit who held a cake sale and donated the R1000 collected to Lauren's CHOC fundraising account!! They wrote:

 

"Penryn Preparatory, in Nelspruit, Mpumalanga, would like to congratulate Lauren on her endeavours to help bring awareness and raise funds for worthy causes, such as CHOC! Our Foundation Phase pupils had three cake sales during the third term and as part of our commitment to the community around us we donate part of the funds raised to a worthy charity or person in need. We hope whomever our donation will reach through CHOC will help bring a smile of hope and encouragement to them."

 

Thanks again for all the support during the voting and KZN hubbers be ready, she wants to organise another '100 miles to nowhere' event so get ready!!
