Story
This is our chance to give just a little back to Helen (Hamston, founder of MGF) & help make her KitchenAid baking dreams come true.
Helen has worked tirelessly over the last few years to build Mummy's Gin Fund from a Facebook group she set up with just a few friends as somewhere they could buy & sell baby related items...to a website full of parenting tips, advice, recommendations & even an amazing discount card. Not to mention the Facebook group is still going strong with just over 25,000 members. 25,000!!! She used all the spare time she had & a little more besides to help her fellow parents find their way through the maze that is raising children with the mantra #noparentleftbehind
Not only that but so many wonderful stories have emerged from Mummy's Gin Fund. From the heartwarming story of local mums and dads coming to the rescue of Clare and her little man Nate so that he could move into a safe, clean home...to helping London Underground worker Pip get the recognition he deserved for standing out from the crowd with the #belikepip campaign...from reuniting people with lost bikes, teddies, purses, buggies...to giving people in vulnerable situations the chance to get advice, help & support in a way that only 24,999 fellow parents can do.
And let's not forget that we still have a way to sell on things we no longer need & get bargains to help with the ever spiralling costs of raising children.
So here goes...please give whatever you can to help us reach this goal and give Helen a present that she will treasure forever. This will be something that she can use every day to make life a little easier, to make life a little sweeter...to simply say thank you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
