Tickets on Sale!

Dear Friends,

Welcome to my usual Thursday Update!

I'm pleased to report that Raffle Tickets have been printed (they really look awesome!) and are on sale since Monday.

Already 50 Tickets sold in only 4 days.

Today a big thanks goes to Daniela that not only got herself a few "lucky numbers" but also helped to distribute some tickets! As well, my good friend Francesco has been until now our biggest investor, buying 10 tickets for himself. I guess he is really into the T-shirt signed by Diego Milito, but above all he has been really keen to contribute in a number of ways to the success of this challenge and to raise money for KIDS, for which I'm really grateful.

Buy 5 Tickets get 1 Free offer is still ongoing!

Draw will take place at the Waterloo Bar on Friday 4th of March at 10.00
Book that day in your Calendars, as a great party is being planned for the occasion.
Waterloo Bar has been very kind to offer us hosting the party and we are looking forward to have a lot of fun altogether.

Thanks for your constant support and if you want to buy any ticket don't hesitate to contact me!

Have a great week end!
Johnny.

Third Week – Third Step and….

….Raffle Tickets are being printing while I’m typing these lines.

I’m happy to announce that they will be on sale from Monday 24th of January at

2€euro each.

Another friend has welcomed this initiative helping with the printing of Tickets, him and his company decided to remain anonymous. Still if you are reading this and by any chance you need to get involved with any large printings, don’t hesitate to contact me and I will highly recommend them.

Ticket Number 5 has already been reserved. Hurry up and  book your favourite number before it’s gone!

A Dublin GAA Jersey, Kids T-signed by Argentine players, Alfajores Havanna and many other surprises are waiting for you!

Also, as you probably noticed last Friday, my good friend in Argentina has created the Logo that will keep me company during this Adventure.

Other than a great friend, Joel is a creative and innovative Web Designer.

Please follow his sites and progress. His portfolio includes the Web design of Argentinean musicians and large companies that have trusted his qualities.

You can have a look yourself on his personal Web Page: http://joelmendesnovo.com.ar/

As usual, thank you all for your support.

Second Week Towards My Goal

...and the Second Sponsor has joined. I’m delighted that “En Piste pour le Monde” is now also supporting our initiative.

I would kindly recommend you to visit Delphine and Maxime’s Blog.

They have been travelling around the world and they made their tour useful by helping people along each amazing journey.

I personally admire what they have done, which it not only had a great impact on people’s lives but it also enriched their personal experiences. With their initiative and creating “En Piste pour le Monde”, they did not only have the chance to see the world with their own eyes, but also to interact with each community they visited.

Their adventure has been followed by many people and you can also learn more about them in the following link:

Thanks for your support,

Johnny.

Getting Started - First Donation received

I’m pleased to inform that on the very first day this Blog has been created, the first Sponsor has joined the adventure!

Soon I’ll be adding a spreadsheet with detailed information regarding the donations.

"Alatryste was born in Madrid spent 23 years there and then moved to Dublin, Ireland for 6 years, recently he changed country once again and moved to Lisbon in search of new ways to catch the light…"

I have personally followed Alatryste’s progress during the last year and enjoyed many of the pictures. Please have a look at the following site and enjoy:

Sponsor me to complete this adventure

I created this BLOG in order to get Sponsorship and raise funds For KIDS.

KIDS works in Argentina developing and delivering after-school programs and supports by giving children living in poverty somewhere to go that will nurture their desire to learn.

For more information please visit the Website: www.kids-argentina.org

A new KIDS event is coming up in 2011 and I decided to join this adventure hoping it will make a difference in kids life and that will also enrich my personal experience.

I will be delighted if you could help, donate or sponsor me to reach 1000 Euro, which will be donated to KIDS following this great event.

I'll be walking 25km per day over five days!

Please find as well more information regarding this event on the following link:
