Hi all

I am trying to raise funds for a genetic disorder charity (PKU) my daugher suffers from this so i had this idea:

In exchange for a PDF guide on how to keep your home computer in good shape, and my attention to your PC related questions/problems you donate to the PKU charity.

(Im an IT manager so dont worry)

Times are hard i know so there is no minimum, but a maximum of £5.

All money donated will be sent via cheque and the resulting print out in the PKU newsletter will be added to this thread.

Here is a little bit about PKU:


My daughter suffers from a genetic disorder called PKU (Phenylketonuria) This means her body cannot break down protein, if protein levels build up it can cause irreversible brain damage and behavioral problems.
She cannot eat foods that contain high protein, and this means almost everything we eat is not available to her, meat, fish, all dairy products, pototo, pasta, bread, some vegetables ect ect.
The PKU charity develops prescription foods and cooking plans for people with PKU and makes our life much easier.
She lives a perfectly normal life thanks to the heel prick test done at birth, and the prescription foods and replacement solutions she has.
It is very hard to manage her diet, and make sure she doesnt eat anything she shouldnt, and im sure it will get harder as she gets older!
The PKU foundation are brilliant and so id the Sheffield childrens hospital so we like to give something back if we can

and my daughter appreciates it too...what a smile :)



So drop me a PM if you are interested and ill give you the details and you can fire away with questions
 
Great cause! Do you have a paypal account? Or maybe make a 'justgiving' page? Count me in!
 
Andy,

If you know of any other fund raising events for this I may be able to organise for a few of
us to attend in costume. I'm involved with a few costuming groups and they are always wanting
to help for new charities and help out at events (Give's us an excuse to prance around dressed up!!!)

Let me know if you need any help mate

Stu
 
Thanks a lot guys, PM's on the way, its much apprecited,

Stu, yeah they have lots of events, ill forward their event sheet to you when i get the next newsletter :)

Andy
 
Excellent, when I get it through I'll forward it onto the guys that make it happen 8)

Can't believe an ugly ****er like you produced a little lady who is so cute!
 
Just like to thank all the guys and gals who donated to this charity, we raised a massive £90 on this board alone which is amazing.

Im going to match the final amount and send the letter and cheque off, we should get a mention in the next newsletter which i will post up.

I cant begin to express how good it makes you feel when you have such good community friends, ill hopefully get the chance to thank some of you in person at some point in the future

Andy
 
Bit behind on this one... sorry :oops: Please PM me paypal details Andy and i'll chuck in a few quid. Every little helps ay?
:wink:
 
That's a great total.

Well done lads.

Andy, remember about getting me a list of events so I can maybe sort out some troops.
 
Stu, the newsletter will have dates and times, i will write them a letter with the cheque and let you know what they say.

You must be used to having a red saber anyway mate
