Veronica is this week’s feature fundraiser
Veronica Morris will also be taking part in the run to raise money for the NCF, an organisation now totally funded by public subscription. And the NCF needs your help. Find VERONICA on her fundraising page HERE. She will be participating from Cornwall, United Kingdom and deeply appreciates any and all donations made, which will all have direct positive impacts on the peace broking work conducted by the NCF.
Veronica has Multiple Sclerosis which can cause mobility issues and can make walking difficult, and this fundraiser will be an exceptional challenge and a fantastic achievement for her. She may make it just to 700 metres rather than 7K but we are especially proud of her for her incredible effort! Veronica will be taking part in the run for a third year in a row, alongside husband William Morris and beloved dog Indie.
Every donation you make to Veronica will be DOUBLED by The Wineman Trust, so your donations really will make a difference to the total raised through this run. You can find Veronica’s page here: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Veronica-Morris2
On 6th August, the NCF interns will be running 7km as a FUNDRAISER for the Next Century Foundation. This ensures that they can continue their incredible work in waging peace and freeing people from fear. The interns will be running all across the world, from London to Portugal, and from Scotland to Switzerland. All donations will be kindly DOUBLED by The Wineman Trust!
Latest Updates
The Next Century Foundation would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has donated so far for the charity run. We are grateful to announce that we have raised £6,602, which is nearly 70% of our end target. We appreciate all the support given to reach our target before the run begins. Please help us achieve 100% of our target by supporting us through Veronica’s JustGiving page if you have not done so already.
The impact of your donations to this fundraiser
Your donations go directly to the NCF and their transformative work in peace broking. The NCF’s work includes supporting and hosting peace initiatives, and open and inclusive dialogue for peace concerning primarily but not exclusively the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia. Donations will also allow the NCF to continue conducting frequent and impactful facilitating events: regular conferences and other forums held to discuss new, forward-thinking ideas, and off the record meetings to develop strategies and policies. Furthermore, donations will allow the NCF to continue translating the ideas that emerge from these events into policy recommendations, non-papers, articles and blogs, and distributing them to key opinion formers.
Supporting the NCF through this fundraiser, and allowing us to continue conducting this work thereby allows realisation of NCF’s aim to promote the four freedoms: freedom from want; freedom of expression; freedom of religion; and freedom from fear. The NCF rely solely on donations from members and from money raised through fundraising to complete it’s work and bring peace to the world.
Please find the link to the wider NCF Intern Fun Run page HERE. We sincerely thank you for any donations you can spare, and are extremely grateful for your support which allows the NCF to continue working on crucial matters.
ALL DONATIONS WILL BE DOUBLED BY THE WINEMAN TRUST
We are especially grateful for the doubling of donations by one of our trustees, Vivian Wineman for his incredible kind doubling of every pound we raise. If you donate a pound, we get two pounds, so every donation is extremely valuable! Please give anything you can to support VERONICA and the rest of the intern team.
