Our 2006 total is £2300.00
By Popular Demand, our Main Chosen Charity (again) for this Year is: -
The Beautiful Gate Care Centre
Crossroads Township, Cape Town.
Beautiful Gate is a care centre for Babies and young Children infected and affected by AIDs. Beautiful Gate are based in a very dangerous township called Cross Roads near Cape Town. The Children are victims of the AIDs virus through no fault of their own; their Parents have died of the virus, or are too sick to look after them properly. The Children have an extremely short life expectancy. The aim of Beautiful Gate is to make their short lives happy & healthy ones.
Our link with Beautiful Gate is that Fiasco's Mum (seen on the left below) is a voluntary head nurse there.
Jenny is always very interested in our club, and is delighted that we have chosen to help the Kids in whatever way we can.
Total collection for 2005 was £5,665.91 !!
"Thank you for your willingness to be involved through this motorcycle fundraiser. We had some visitors from the UK, and they told us that they heard about this fundraiser on national radio - wonderful promotion!"
