The Reasoning Behind the Challenge / The Charity Choice

Since August Bank Holiday my liver has taken a serious hammering...three big nights that weekend (including at least 7 shots of Wray&Nephew on the Sunday night for Matt's birthday)...6 nights of memory loss in Kos ("we love free shots" in Kardamena!)...and then my 30th birthday weekend (1st to 3rd Oct).

I figured it was time to give my liver, wallet, waist and sanity a rest.

It seemed that friends were willing to bet against me completing two months without any alcohol. Seeing as i would be saving a fortune anyway it only seemed fair to donate the proceeds of the bets.

With help I came up with 4 worthy charities. Ideally I wanted small and local, but it seems that to get small chairites you have to look abroad.

Final contenders were: (please check them out)
www.steppingstonesnigeria.org
www.transtanz.moonfruit.com
www.pebblesproject.co.za
www.torturecare.org.uk

I will be donating any proceeds from the challenge to Pebbles Project.
