Greetings everyone! Today I will just bring you up to date on our fundraising & where we stand financially.
We currently have a couple of regular donors every month, plus others who give when they can. In July this year we had to pay out to maintain the website, & this took a large chunk of our funds (costing £288). We currently have just over £280 in our account.

Recently at the office where I work we had a Dress Up/Dress Down day, & colleagues paid a small amount. We collected over £70, but will publish the full amount during next week when it is added to our paypal account http://www.paypal.me/friendsofpakati

I also just heard from Debbie Chadbon this weekend that she is once again having a stall at a local fayre/market. Earlier this year she had managed to raise £50 for Friends of Pakati by selling some of our merchandise as well as some of her home made jam & cakes.

These should boost our funds to around £400 or a little more. Should anyone wish to donate to us, please use either http://www.gofundme.com/friends-of-pakati or http://www.paypal.me/friendsofpakati
