Refugee/Washing Machine Fundraiser - Drum Roll Please...
« on: July 28, 2018, 14:26:51 PM »
I have just had the pleasure of transferring the full amount raised by the incredibly generous and caring CBF membership for the Syrian refugees the RAF group are trying to assist make their lives a little better. As you can see, we did rather well:





That's around 3,700 Lira...

Since the fundraiser started, some washing machines have been bought so the money will be put to other uses too, like fridges, hobs etc.

Guys this was a sensational response to a call for help - we (CBF & RAF) are absolutely blown away by the total and the generosity. Your donations WILL make significant changes to some poor but proud people who's lives must surely be in line for a change of luck.

We had some amazing donations from individual members and thank you, you know who you are - but I also want to say that every donation, however big, is equal in the fact that we asked, and you responded.

Thank you all!

On behalf of myself, RAF and all our Syrian families in the Fethiye area, thank you so much everyone.

Some of the conditions the families are living in are very poor.They do still have to pay rent though. They arrive here with very little and knowing that complete strangers care enough to donate to them is just as important as the actual items that the donations afford us to give.

Thank you.
