Story
Thankyou for taking the time to read our page. Well, as you well know Christmas is just around the corner as there are many unfortunate people in this world who have no ONE to turn to or no WHERE to live now or at Christmas. .
There is a great friend of ours who has kindly bought 20 rooms for this Christmas Eve in the middle of Birmingham City center .We are hoping to give about 40 unfortunate souls living on the streets of Birmingham a little bit of joy even if its only one night this Christmas Eve.
We are hoping to have a couple of barbers on hand to give them a hair cut for the New Year and hopefully get them some fresh clothes. At the moment we are obtaining donations for clothes from some amazing people in and around the Birmingham area. Obviously, the more donations that we receive the better. What ever we have left over we will be donating to another homeless charity or hostel so nothing goes to waste.
There is a small group of helpers who this Christmas Eve are going to find any homeless people in Birmingham City center and offer them a room and shelter for one night. The reason for crowd fund paige is so we can buy them a little something to open up on Christmas morning to give them a little remembrance from their childhood where they had no worries of what tomorrow will bring (if only for one day!)
We will be taking photos and adding updates along the way so you can see the progress, and where your donations have gone.
Once again a massive thankyou in advance for your generosity & help.
MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone........
