- Newbury, United Kingdom
- Funded on Saturday, 6th January 2018
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
I have grown very fond of George the homeless guy in Newbury who sits on his bag around the town centre. I know a lot of others have too as they are always very generous towards him. George, a former soldier has spent the last 17 years on the streets of Newbury.
Well I hate to think of him on the streets on Christmas Day and I would really l would really like to raise enough money to pay for a somewhere for him stay, have a bath, a warm bed and to have a Christmas dinner rather than be alone and cold on the street.
if anyone could help me achieve this by donating i would be very grateful!
Many thanks!

7 years agoThanks to all of you George is staying in a hotel over Christmas and New Year’s Eve. He’s also treating himself to some new clothes and he has also donated some of the money to his personal choice of charity. Once again I cannot thank you all enough for being so generous and kind. George is extremely touched and wants me to thank you all on his behalf. He will not be alone and will have somewhere warm and clean to stay. Thank you, you are all amazing! Merry Christmas xxx
