Many of you may be wondering why a Raidathon for Cancer Research UK? Well back in 2010 my mum was diagnosed with kidney cancer and had to undergo major surgery to remove her kidney. Since then she has had two further operations to treat cancer in her bladder.
This is the hardest thing I have ever experienced in my life, my mum is my best friend and this news really shook my world!
I had been thinking for a while how I could get my world of World of Warcraft guild involved. So I came up with an idea how I (with the help of my guild) could combine our love for the game and the guild with raising money for a fantastic cause....... And that is how Carnage Inc Raidathon was born! HOW CAN YOU HELP? Donate, Donate, Donate... every penny counts and this really is for a fantastic cause. When making a donation please be sure to mention your in-game name and server if relevant, or the name of the friend/relative you are sponsoring also where you heard about Raidathon. This will really help us to keep track of donations.
Donate here: Just Giving All money raised will go directly to Cancer Research UK. You can also help us by spreading the word to friends, family and guild mates. By making a post on your guild site, updating your real id, Facebook, Twitter etc. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
