3C's December roundup
« on: January 05, 2020, 20:01:14 PM »
Good evening everyone, first of all a Happy New Year to you all.
I thought that you might like to have an update of our recent funraising for the charity.
We were fortunate enough to have a number of events in December, which were both fun for those attending and successful in terms of raising money for 3C's.

we began with a presentation from a group who attend regular weekly quizzes at Bambu restaurant in Çalış.
The group like to support the 3C's and regularly donate during their Tuesday quiz evenings. We were invited to join them for a special pre-Christmas quiz on the 10th December, and to accept the monies that they have collected during the year.
Quizmaster Frederick Ledicott, produced a fun Christmas themed quiz, with around 8 teams taking part. The 3C's team thankfully didn't disgrace themselves, and a super evening included a raffle and a mini auction for a bottle of spirit and a smart watch followed the quiz, again with the proceeds being given to the 3C's.

This group has raised 2,480 tl during the year, with the raffle and auction raising a further 980 tl on the night for the charity.
Our sincere thanks go to Frederick and the quizzers, and to Bambu who host the quiz.

A week later on the 17th December, the 3C'S organised a Christmas fun evening and Curry night at Cahide Bar on Bariş Manco Bvl in Çalış.
The evening was a sell out with 52 participants. A great curry, followed by a Christmas quiz from Ann Pavier, an auction and raffle, and of course some Christmas songs. Some people dressed up in their Christmas jumpers or fancy dress. The prize for best costume went to the Chimney sweep, aka Keith Broderick.
Thanks to the generosity of our supporters and Cahide bar, we raised 2,910 tl which will be used to help disadvantaged children in the local area.
Our grateful thanks go to Cahide and Ceyhun, Ann, and all who donated items for the raffle and auction.

Abu from Summer Rose restaurant in Çalış held a raffle for a hamper that he had put together during December. On Boxing Day, a member of the 3C's committee was asked to draw the winning raffle ticket.
The winners were Rod and Margaret, regular customers at Summer Rose, who were delighted to receive a call from Abu telling them of their success. A few days later they visited the restaurant to receive their prize.
Abu donated the money raised, 240 tl to the 3C's. Special thanks to Abu and his family who are regular supporters of the charity.

We are hoping to host a fun / games night in late February, again at Cahide bar.
