strop45 0 #1 February 13, 2009 Jump Start NZ is a charity which gives selected teenagers (from Canteen - supporting teens with cancer and Project K - providing help to 14/15 yr youths) the experience of a skydive from an RNZAF Hercules. This year it is being held on March 14 at Whenuapai Base, Auckland. Last Year Daniel took part in Jump Start, His story is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3vEFs6qJuk&eurl=http://www.jumpstart.org.nz Sadly, Daniel is not with us anymore but he represents the essence of Jumpstart and what it can do for those involved. This is a great charity and one which I have passively supported in the past. This year I decided to get actively involved, fund raise and go along and be part of the day. You can support these charities and special youngsters in making a skydive by clicking here:http://www.fundraiseonline.co.nz/WayneStronach/ Blue Skies Wayne More information on the charities here:http://www.jumpstart.org.nz/beneficiaries/ Gneral information on Jumpstart here:http://www.jumpstart.org.nz/The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits." -- Albert Einstein Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnDeere 0 #2 February 13, 2009 WOW that is great of everyone that helps with this event!!!!! It really hit at home with me since my best friend died of cancer about 2 years ago. Before he got to sick i paid for him to go on a tandem that he had always wanted to do but never had the money to do. He loved it and was one of the greatest moments in his life. I wish he was here today to jump again! Thanks to you and all that are doing this! Nothing opens like a Deere! You ignorant fool! Checks are for workers!
