Fundraising
If you would like to make a real difference in our community, then how about organising a fundraising event in aid of Leicester Charity Link? All ideas are welcome and we will help and support your fundraising ideas and events.
Here are just a few ideas:
Coffee morning
Sponsored toddle, walk or run
A race night
A quiz night
A summer fete
Car boot sale
A sponsored car wash or fancy dress…
To make it easy to fundraise why not set up your own fundraising page on www.justgiving.com, just simply select Leicester Charity Link as your chosen charity.
You can be as creative as you want and be safe in the knowledge that every penny you raise will make a massive difference to local people and children.
If you would like to discuss your ideas or would like to get involved then please call Susan McEniff on 0116 222 2212 or email susan.mceniff@charity-link.org.
Thank you for your support.
Rina and Zach were scared
Rina and Zach were desperate to escape the violence and threats they had experienced from Rina’s husband. Rina had been held hostage in her home and regularly beaten. A family member saw their plight and intervened so they could get away.
Over a six month period they had moved three times to protect themselves. Rina had been unable to go to work because of her injuries and was trying to survive on statutory sick pay. Rina and Zach found a safe place to live, but they had no furniture, beds, cooker or any household goods. Women’s Aid referred Rina and Zach to us for help.
We acted immediately and raised over £700 to purchase Rina and Zach the items that they desperately needed for their new home.
