Keeping His Mouth Shut for Cambodia and Terminally Ill Children The Ultimate Sacrifice What Is the Point? This is not an exercise in self-discipline or self- punishment. Ross is raising funds for two charities close to his heart. One, of course, is Cambodian Communities out of Crisis. The other is The Rainbow Trust children’s charity, ‘the charity that no-one wants to meet’, which sup- ports families who have a child with a life-threatening or terminal illness. Ross’s company Integrity Sup- plies UK Limited works with Walther Strong and Company Ltd. Just as some of Integrity Supplies’ profits support the work of CCC, so also the purchase of Walther Strong’s products helps support The Rain- bow Trust. Sponsor Ross CCC Founder Ross Rennie Anyone who knows Ross can testify that he loves to talk. Without the ability to speak, Ross could not do his job. He prefers the spoken word to the written word as a means of communication. Ross loves to talk about Cambodia and above all he loves to talk about Jesus. Ross is inviting his friends, his business contacts, CCC supporters and the general public to get in- volved. You can support Ross’s fundraising effort by donating at my.give.net/silence So for Ross to stop talking voluntarily would be a great sacrifice and a testing experience. But that is exactly what he plans to do from midnight to midnight on Saturday 5 August 2017. Ross will be silent for 24 hours, so you could choose to sponsor him at so much per hour, for example 24 x 10p = £2.40 or 24 x 50p = £12, or give any lump sum of your choice. There will be no talking, no telephone calls, no sleep (to avoid snoring) and no comedy programmes on television (so that he does not laugh) for Ross for 24 hours. He will be closely monitored so that he is not tempted to cheat. If you are a UK taxpayer you can increase the value of your donation by 25% by confirming that you would like to reclaim Gift Aid. rainbowtrust.org.uk cambcomm.org.uk The Rainbow Trust and Cambodian Communities out of Crisis are registered charities
