My Story

Ever wonder what kind of impact the money you give to charity actually has? With VIVA’s model of collective action and working in partnership you can be certain that the money you give is being spent on projects that will have a lasting impact on children’s lives. On January 25th, 2015 I will be running the Standard Chartered Hong Kong 10K Race. I have never really been a keen runner, however running to support the work of VIVA takes the challenge to a whole new level. I like the approach VIVA takes with helping vulnerable and at-risk children around the world as it seeks to inspire lasting change in their lives through the power of collective action. By encouraging and forming networks of churches and community organizations already involved with helping the children, VIVA’s reach goes further and is more sustainable in bringing real, lasting change for these children. You can find out more at www.viva.org As part of my participation in this run, I am endeavoring to raise HKD$10,000 to be donated directly to VIVA, and together with a team of over 50 other VIVA runners, we endeavor to raise half a million HKD. Your donation of any amount would be a great help toward my reaching this goal. Through simplygiving.com you can make safe and secure donations online to sponsor me. The proceeds of your support are sent directly to VIVA. Using this platform is really simple and most importantly it is also a really cost efficient way for the charity to raise funds. My page allows you to follow my progress; share it with friends; voice encouragement or even join me and get involved yourself! Your generosity will play a role in the efforts to impact the lives of thousands of children across the globe. Thank you so much for your support. I will think of you proudly as I bravely pound the streets of HK for 10 km! Sincerely, Gislene Donaldson
