PREVIEW: Team Leaving a Legacy raises R51 000

Blood, sweat and tears have borne bountiful rewards for Leaving a Legacy.

Team leader, Susan Pitout said every sore foot and aching muscle was worthwhile, given the team’s exceptional fundraising total of R51 000 to date.

She described this amount as nothing short of a miracle.

“I’ve often been quoted as saying ‘faith as feet’; it’s a doing word and so true. But there comes a time when we need to stand still and see what God is going to do next, and again He did not disappoint us.”

With all 51.2 kilometres of the Blood Buddy Memel to Newcastle Event gone by, Pitout said the fundraising amount was an affirmation of the team’s efforts.

And its efforts will go a long way to assist St Martin’s Village.
