DESCRIPTION:\n\nOver Christmas and New Year\, 17 Cambridge students took t
 he Giving What We Can Pledge to donate 10% of their income after they get 
 a job to charities they believe are effective. They joined 130 Cambridge s
 tudents and graduates and a fast-growing community of over 2600 people aro
 und the world - over 1000 took the pledge in the last year alone. One of t
 hem\, Sebastian Oehm\, wrote about his reasons for doing this here: http:/

 4\n\nNext Wednesday\, three people will explain how they came to sign the 
 pledge and how it fits into their lives. Come along regardless whether or 
 not you ever thought about taking the pledge. This is a great chance to fi
 nd out more about it and ask any questions you may have\, from the small p
 ractical details to the difficult questions about 'making a difference'.\n
 \nOur three guest speakers are:\n- Jenny Woods is a geophysics PhD student
  who currently donates 10% of her income.\n- Adam Nightingale is an engine
 ering consultant in Cambridge who took the Pledge a year ago at a pledge p
 anel event\n- [Third speaker TBC]\n\nThey will form an interesting and div
 erse group\, who all took the pledge as part of their own paths to try to 
 do the most good in the world. After the panel there will be a chance to c
 hat more with any of the speakers.\n\nFind more information on the pledge
