Trip to Uganda + USA Run expenses
Donation protected
Hello! My name is David Christof - you probably know me: for the last 3 years I have been doing philanthropic journeys - mostly extremely long charity runs - to raise awareness and fundraise for those without safe drinking water. Up-to-date, I have personally fundraised over $42,000 ! All this money went directly to the non-profits that actually make the projects - NOTHING to me or to help offset the cost of the journeys.
In the past, I was able to find sponsors to cover the cost of the expenses. For the current philanthropic journey - "Run around the USA for safe drinking water, 21 marathons, 21 schools" - I unfortunately was not able to do that. My wife and I decided that we would do this journey anyway, paying for everything from our own savings. We have run into a little problem though - it's costing us more than we had expected, and we are now almost out of the money we set aside for this journey. Sadly, too, we are now using the money I was hoping I could use for my trip to Uganda this summer to actually visit the water projects that my Prague to London and Prague to Africa runs made possible. Yes, there is a well in Uganda with my name on it, and I haven't seen it yet..
Your generosity will be MUCH appreciated. This is the first time I am asking anyone to donate to help offset the cost of this jouney. As you can imagine - gas, food on the road, and other costs quickly add up, so anything you can donate will help me speak at more schools.
With gratitude,
David + family
