Helping Wanda

Dear friends, 
I'm helping to raise money for a charity to help a local Gaillac lady called Warda who tragically had both hands and feet amputated after contracting a disease in hospital whilst being treated for something quite routine. As a part of her rehabilitation process she participated in various different sports. One of these included running using the blades that you see in the para-olympics . Apparently she was brilliant, the problem is that they cost 17 000€! Half of this sum has already been collected. Friends from the running club at Brens are having a fundraiser on Sunday the 3rd of June at the Pichery stadium in Gaillac next to the swimming pool. There are sporting events , food, drinks, tombola etc
If you would care to make a donation that would be great, it's a registered charity so 60% is refundable on your tax return. Cheques should be made out to  Athlé Brens Gaillac  if you wish to profit from the tax refund be sure to send a stamped addressed envelope along with your donation and the completed forms will be returned to you by post. Cheques in sterling are also excepted, You can send the Donations to me ....

 Please feel free to come by on the day and meet Warda, she really is an amazing woman,and have a drink, cake or sandwich .
Thank you in advance
sincerely
