I'd like to wish my good friend Simon a Happy Birthday for January 11th. I can't say it on the day as he'll be cycling through Egypt taking part in the Tour d'Afrique enjoying an incredible experience as well as raising money for their foundation and AVIF too.
To help in fundraising, prior to flying off to Cairo Friday, Simon is hoping to set up his FaceBook Birthday Cause. [That link shows Amy Sample Ward's page explaining more]. Causes, the social change application belonging to Facebook, now sends all users a message two weeks before their birthday encouraging them to set up a cause asking people to donate to their favourite charity rather than send a card or buy a gift.
Brilliant idea!
The technology behind the Birthday Cause page allows access to the charity's own page as well as telling the charity who the donor is. It will also be wonderful for Simon to be able to log on on rest days [this "rest day" list also illustrates just exactly HOW COOL this experience will be] :
