Hello all,
We’re raising money to install new play equipment and resurface the gardens at our refuge accommodation. We want to create lovely gardens where the women we support can relax and their children can play, to help take their minds of their traumatic experiences and make happy memories.
All of the donations we receive during the month of August will be used to help fund this outdoor playground refurbishment. As part of their Little by Little campaign, Global Giving will be match funding all donations up to $50 during the month of August so please give generously. All eligible donations made to partners with Partner or Leader status will be matched at 50%, while all partners with Superstar status will be matched at 60%.
Due to their experiences with domestic violence and the uncertainties that lay ahead, play-based activities offer the families we support some normality in their lives and provide an outlet from the challenges faced by the children. Playing outside helps children have fun, make new friends, develop their social interaction skills and increase self confidence and self esteem.
If you can help today with a donation, large or small, to bring us closer to our overall target of £50,000, we would be very grateful.
Thank you for your support and I’ll be in touch again soon,
Nik
