    Hey DP,

    On the 21st of March I'll be doing the Sport Relief Run and aiming to raise some more money for charity.

    
    As one of the UK’s biggest fundraising events, Sport Relief brings the entire nation together to get active, raise cash and change lives.
    
    David Walliams' astonishing swim across the English Channel, Adrian Chiles and Alan Shearer's 335-mile cycle ride from Newcastle to London and, more recently, Eddie Izzard's truly amazing "marathon a day" around the UK, all encapsulate what Sport Relief is about – rising to the challenge.
    
    The Sport Relief Weekend is taking place from Friday 19 March to Sunday 21 March 2010 and it'll be three whole days of energy, entertainment and events for everyone to enjoy.

    If you'd be generous to give even a small amount to a very worthy cause then please sponsor me a show your support!

    Every tiny little bit helps and donating is very simple with JustGiving who even support Paypal, you can find my page for this event here:

    Your donation would go towards changing the lives of people who are less fortunate than ourselves and just putting a smile on their faces is more than worth it in my opinion.

    Many Thanks,
    -Silver

    Here's a few examples of how your help would change the lives of others:

    In Kenya, £2 / $4 could
    feed a child orphaned
    by AIDS for one day.

    In Africa, £5 / $10 could pay for a mosquito
    net to protect a mother and her baby
    from contracting life-threatening
    malaria while they sleep.

    £10 / $20 could pay for a volunteer
    to visit an isolated older
    person in the UK so they feel
    less alone.
