Dear friends

 

I have decided to take on a challenge completely out of the ordinary … I have decided to join a group of crazy enthusiastic cyclists and participate in the Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge dressed as a cow!

You are probably thinking that I have finally lost my marbles, not so! One of the main events of The Cows each year is the 94.7 Cycle Challenge and they have managed to raise more than R17 million since 2008. The Cows remain committed to extending their success throughout South Africa with the purpose of FUNdraising for CHOC Childhood Cancer Foundation SA.

 

  • Click here www.petal.givengain.org
  • Click on ‘Riding the 94.7 with the Cows – The Cows’
  • Click on the RED DONATE button and donate now to my noble cause!

 

WHAT IS CHOC? CHOC Childhood Cancer Foundation SA has for 33 years stood together to support children with cancer and their families. Childhood cancers and blood disorders affect 1 in 600 children under the age of 16. Childhood cancer is a reality; it does not discriminate; does not care where you live; does not care about your bank balance or the colour of your skin. CHOC keeps hope alive for all children in South Africa as they know that children are our future.

 

CHOC uses the funds raised by the Cows to fund specific projects. The Cow committee will meet with CHOC in the first part of 2014 to decide what projects they will fund. As an example the projects that were funded in 2013 were:

Hi Doreen

 

Is there an alternate way of making a donation? EFT perhaps? I'd like to contribute but the GivenGain website doesn't look that legit (apologies if it is)... I see its a NPO registered in Switzerland...? 

 

Just not comfortable entering banking details on that site...

Hi Ryan, the GivenGain website is 100% legit. No worries at all there. As soon as you make your donation, you will get an email, and so will Doreen; and Choc will too. What is more, if you want I van give you the email address from the lady at The Choc cows who will issue you with a section 18a Income Tax donation certificate.

Thank you Harryn for stating this.. Ryan what with all the fraud on the internet i understand perfectly where you are coming from.... I have only joined the CHOC cows to cycle and collect myself for them this year but have been affiliated with them for 2 years now and have donated to various other causes of CHOC cow friends who have done various projects to collect money and i have always received an email immediately and so have they....the lady who checks everything for CHOC cows at givengain is Karen.. her email is daisy@thecows.co.za

if i had to use other bank details it would have had to be my own or a bank account that i had opened myself and then i thought i would have stood less chance of raising money for CHOC... so this is the route to go... thanks so much for your interest...
