My story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We're off to Romania (a place we've never visited before!). We're going with our legendary DIY skills to help build two family sized homes in the grounds of a care home, Casa Lumina. This is home for some very special young people who have diverse physical and psychological disabilities. They were abandoned and helpless and  were children when they first went to Casa Lumina ten years ago. It was (and will always be) their promised home for life. Today and for the future as they grow up they need more privacy and space and that's why we are going - to help build it!

We've supported the work of Cry in the Dark for a number of years but this is the first time we've got really involved at the sharp end! Will you please back us? All the money will help pay for the project. We've funded our air fares and living expenses.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now. These very special young people will be very grateful.
