David Jacoby: David Jacoby - Olympic distance triathlon

from 28 Sep 2013 - 29 Sep 2013 in Kent

For better or worse I have decided to take on the exciting challenge of doing a triathlon in Kent in September. To get me through the (extensive) training I am going to have to do just to complete the course, I can think of nothing better than to have my friends and family do their small bit to help make the world we live in a slightly greener place.

By making a small (or large) pledge to change your lifestyle for a short period you can not only save the money that I would have asked you to sponsor me, but you can also reduce your carbon footprint!

This website will explain the ins and outs of the process but I would be really grateful if you would consider doing your bit and pledging to make a small change for me. Believe me, I will be working hard for it!

Thank you very much

David

Yes, I'm asking you to sponsor me... But no, I'm not asking you to give me your change: I'm asking you to create change.

The DoNation is all about creating a more sustainable world, about protecting the environment on which our livelihoods depend. And the environment needs our action more than it needs our cash.

HOW IT WORKS:
Browse the DoActions and find one (or more) that suits you, then make your pledge(s). Some are really easy; others take a bit more effort.

You only pledge to do your chosen action for two months and all the information you need is provided here on The DoNation, making it really easy to complete. You'll receive a few helpful reminders and then at the end of the two months you'll be asked to confirm how you got on.

So please, get doing!

Thank you!!

David Jacoby
