| Irish
Charity Sky Jump For SHSKI
After
finding our Web site on the Internet, two university students
from Celbridge, Co. Kildare, Ireland, Maria O'Brien and
her friend, Rachel Mathers, contacted us about organizing
a charity sky jump to support our work with street kids.
We were understandably agreeable to this idea.
We
sent SHSKI literature and a videotape and the two enterprising
university students set up a table at their university and
began collecting pledges. By May 6, 2000, the date of their
jump, they had received enough donations to pay for their
jump and to send US$500 to Students Helping Street Kids International.
Of
course, we are hoping that their tandem parachute jump
for street kids will inspire other philanthropic adventurists
to contact us about organizing a similar event in benefit
of SHSKI. It's a great way to pay for your hobby and raise
funds for street kids at the same time!
