Day 4 - Fund raising update - £1936.12 raised to date

Fundraising Thermometer

Yesterday the fund got a boost of  £82.12p from the good work of Nick Cockram who knocked on doors with his ELF shaped collecting tin.  Nick's son James 6 is currently undergoing treatment .  Nick let me have a picture of James in which this smiling happy lad wipes away the fears and insecurities  of us adults.  James like the fab Ruby I met on Friday has lost his hair through the treatment, like I did 6 years ago, many will say I have none now .  However with just £64 to our target it will be amazing to help our Rugby collection in Rome if you could dig deep and ask your friends to help us push the mercury through £2000 by tomorrow, lets do this for James and Ruby and others by supporting ELF.

Current total means we have at least £1436 to give to ELF plus 2 collections boxes bulging with notes and Euros.
Donating is easy online at www.justgiving.com/myrtlemini or by text in the number box put 70070 and text the words myrt99 £5 or any amount up to £10.
