A Very Merry and Pure Christmas
4 Nov 2008
CNCF is very excited to announce an affiliation with Pure, a high quality cashmere retailer that sources its finest cashmere from Mongolia. Pure’s deep links with the region made CNCF a natural choice for its charitable efforts. For every item sold from their range of Cashmere cable accessories, Pure will donate GBP 10 to CNCF. This money will be used to support the Blue Skies Ger Village Project. In the words of Nick Falkingham from Pure, "CNCF does some terrific work to give under-privileged children a better start in life than they would otherwise have." |

Gobi Desert - China 8-16 June, 2008 - 250 kms Self Supporting Endurance Race
8 Oct 2008
Firstly, a huge thank you to everyone for supporting our mad walk across the desert on behalf of the kids of CNCF. The 11 members of the CNCF team are pleased to report that they ALL made it across the 250kms of harsh terrain, with temperatures up to 40 degrees celcius each day (approximately 25 of the 165 who started the race did not make it). The team raised approximately US$74,500 in the process, which will go a long way towards helping in the work that CNCF does. |
