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 charity.
The page owner is responsible for the distribution of funds raised.
Story
Keri's story, or reality is both tragic and inspiring. Keri is a long standing family friend. She is 30 years old and has a gorgeous 16 month old daughter. She has recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer and the prognosis is not good.
She has faced this news with remarkable fortitude: outwardly demonstrating incredible positivity, a calm acceptance, an upbeat mood and even a degree of humour.
She has a great desire to marry her long term partner and father to her daughter, Rich. A date has been set for March 9th, 2017.
This JustGiving page has been set up by friends of Keri in order to raise money for her Dream Wedding, to help fulfil her great wish and create lasting memories.
All donations are very gratefully received for this most deserving cause and your support is hugely appreciated
