10-Year-Old Solves Rubik's Cube for Charity
30 Mar
Summary
- A 10-year-old boy will attempt a Rubik's Cube speed challenge.
- He aims to raise £500 for Midlands Air Ambulance Charity.
- The challenge was inspired by his father and his grandfather's rescue.
A 10-year-old boy named George is preparing for a significant challenge: solving a Rubik's Cube for charity. He will attempt to beat his personal best time, aiming for under three minutes during a Facebook Live broadcast. The event is scheduled for next Monday, coinciding with Easter. George's fundraising goal is £500, dedicated to the Midlands Air Ambulance Charity. This particular charity was chosen because of its vital role in rescuing his grandfather after a motorbike accident. George's younger brother, Alfie, aged 8, will film the challenge. Their mother, Tara, highlighted that George realized the air ambulance service relies on donations, not government funding, which motivated their choice. This initiative builds on their past success; last year, they raised £1,000 for Birmingham Children's Hospital. George's father, Mike, expressed immense pride in his son's dedication to both developing a skill and using it to help others. George practices his Rubik's Cube solving every day, though he humorously doubts he can match the world record of under three seconds.
