<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;"><span style="color: #333399;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Soup Kitchen is run tirelessly by local couple Ruvim and Pasa and supplies a crucial lifeline to almost 100 people, including whole families and the Elderly, EVERY DAY, 365 days a year!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>At the moment the Soup Kitchen can only afford to serve soup and pasta to its visitors, therefore people’s diets can be short of vital protein necessary for good health.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;"><span style="color: #333399;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: small;">This is where YOUR HELP is very much needed to make a massive difference to the lives of people in Cosnita.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are running an appeal to buy chickens for the Soup Kitchen as this will provide a vital source of protein for those in need.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="color: #333399;">Are you able to make a one off <strong>£2, £3 or £5 donation</strong> towards a chicken as perhaps a gift instead of buying an Easter egg? Alternatively, you could make a monthly donation of £5 to support the crucial sustainability of this project.</span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Whatever you are able to give, know that EVERY PENNY will really make a huge impact on the continuing work of the Soup Kitchen and the lives of those who go there.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;"><span style="color: #333399;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">We have calculated that it would cost around £2500 to run this project and provide protein for the Soup Kitchen for a year, so we have set an initial target of £500, but, with your help, we hope to make this a sustainable project for years to come.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Please click the 'Donate Now' button to make a one off donation or click <a href="http://www.justgiving.com/linkromania/Donate" target="_blank">here</a> to make a monthly contribution to this project.</span></span></p>
