Weʼre raising £1,500 to To fund young carer's hampers and food hampers for local families on the edge of financial stability.
What is crowdfunding?
Crowdfunding is a new type of fundraising where you can raise funds for your own personal cause, even if you're not a registered nonprofit.
The page owner is responsible for the distribution of funds raised.
Story
This is my sixth year of what started as a very small idea with a handful of guests. We are a small strong team of volunteers from all walks of life and with one common interest and that is to make a difference.
I have hosted the Emsworth Community Christmas on Christmas day for people who would have necessarily been on their own at Christmas. This is our first year we won't be making an even bigger Christmas day for our guests..
This year can't all come together in our usual traditional gathering, instead we will be reaching out to 82 local vulnerable families and giving each family a £50 carefully selected Christmas dried food hamper.
We will also be supporting our young carers who attend Warblington and The Bourne Secondary Schools. Life can be tough as a young carer, this year we want to acknowledge them as the great inspirations they are to their family members they care for.
