About us

Perpetual Motion Squad is the name of our team in the Sucata Split charity fundraising event. The event itself is organised by Gemin-i.org and all proceeds will go to them to help fund a project aimed at raising awareness and understanding of HIV and AIDS to young people around the world.

The event is split into two activities. The first and most important is the fund raising. Each team aims to raise a minimum of £1000 before the 27th of March 2010. It costs £250 per school participanting in the awareness project, so every team will help 4 schools take part if they reach their goal. Of course nothing is stopping a team continuing to raise money once the £1000 is reached and that is exactly what we aim to do.

The second part is a 4 day tour across Europe, from Belgium to Croatia. This can be seen as a reward for teams after working hard to raise money, or as an incentive to draw people in to the idea. Either way, it achieves its goal. The cost of the trip is covered by the team and does not come out of the fundraising money, even a single penny.

Perpetual Motion Squad is a team of two - Jay and Matt. Here we are looking as amazing as ever.

As yet we have not acquired a vehicle, however the rules state it must cost no more than £250. No doubt we will make a post when we get our hands on a car.

Currently we are at £68 raised so far, which doesn't sound like a lot but it is 7% of our total. We are working hard to raise the rest, so if you would like to help out a good cause, you can:

• Spread the word by passing on a link to this blog or our justgiving page
• Donate to the charity through our just giving page at http://www.justgiving.com/perpetualmotionsquad
• Donate in person to one of us (though we'd prefer if you donated through justgiving as the money they goes straight to the charity)
