gerisullivanWhen I was seven years old, my charitable fundraising efforts brought in a few dollars in a small milk carton thanks to Trick or Treat for UNICEF.
Over in London, 7-year-old Charlie Simpson has just raised more than £100,000 for UNICEF's Haiti Earthquake Children's Appeal. He set out hoping to raise £500 quid through a sponsored bike ride for Haiti -- by riding seven laps, about eight kilometers, around his local park. That's quite a ride for a 7-year-old. It's quite a fundraising goal, too.
Charlie lives in the future. He used a JustGiving page to get sponsors for his bike ride. He's currently at 22,519% of his goal. The contributions are still coming in as the story continues to spread.
Way to go, Charlie! Ride on!
