Guy's Personal Message:
Hi All,
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. As most of you know, I've been actively involved with the All Stars Boxing Gym and Youth Club for a while now, along with many other people around the Harrow Road Commumity. Our main aim is to give young people a positive place to go and learn a disciplined sport whilst also developing a sense of focus, direction and achievement. We are now facing a serious threat of closure unless we can raise some serious cash in order to maintain our building and keep a roof over our heads... Without All Stars a lot of the young people around the area would have nowhere to go, which can lead to all sorts of social problems as I am sure you're aware. With all this in mind, I am participating in a 10K sponsored run in Richmond Park at 09:15 on Sunday, 16th May. If you would like to support me - and more importantly support All Stars - then please give as generously as you can.
Making a donation through CharityGiving is simple. charitygiving.co.uk is operated by The Dove Trust, a charity with over 26 years' experience of helping individuals, charities and good causes globally, so your giving is safe and secure.
CharityGiving will reclaim gift aid tax on your donation (if you are a UK taxpayer), meaning any donation is worth around 25% more. They also charge less than other fundraising websites, so more money goes to this great cause!
Guy is raising money for All Stars Boxing Gym And Youth Club:
Since being established in 1974 the All Stars Boxing Club has become an institution within the local community, embodying the skill, disclipine and comradery which is essential in team boxing. The club has produced champions on a regional, national and international level and continues to increase its reputation within the boxing world. However, aside from its sporting accolades, the club has managed to achieve another great success that came about as a product of its' existence.
Although creating a competitive boxing squad was the initial goal of founder Isola Akay MBE, something else was realised whilst on this journey to success. For many of the young people involved, including those who did not end up representing the club in boxing, All Stars became something stable in their lives as well as a place to escape the negativity of life in volatile surroundings. If you are familiar with the Harrow Road area you will know it is a place of contradictions, situated closely to an abundance of wealth yet riddled with high rates of drug-related crime, violence and gang culture. Amongst this the All Stars stands defiant, offering the youth a safe environment where not only boxing is taught, but also the skills of discipline, respect and self-worth can be learnt to be carried on throughout life. The profound and lasting effect All Stars has had on people is what makes it unique, more than a boxing club and a necessity in the community.
Having realised the social impact and potential of the club, we welcome our responsibilities and want to push this side of All Stars further to maximise the good we can achieve in our community. Whether this means branching out into other sports, or including educational and vocational aspects, the All Stars will broaden its horizons so that even more of todays' youth can become a part of our family.
