Dereck Chisora has honoured his side bet with David Haye and
paid £20,000 to The African Caribbean Leukaemia Trust (ACLT).
The donation will help the charity to support its lifesaving
work and increase awareness to people of ethnic backgrounds on bone
marrow, blood and organ donation registries.
Haye is a parton of the ACLT, which was founded by Orin Lewis
and Beverley De-Gale after their son, Daniel De-Gale was diagnosed
with leukaemia 19 years ago,
Orin Lewis OBE said: "We are delighted to accept a cheque
of £20,000 from Dereck Chisora on behalf of the pre-match bet
between him and opponent David Haye.
"We're sincerely grateful to them both. The generous donation
will go towards securing further bone marrow, blood and organ
donation recruitment drives throughout the UK in addition to
delivering awareness campaigns throughout the year, to help save
lives against blood cancer and other life threatening conditions
which require blood and organ donation."
