Story
Two members of London City Voices had really horrible things happen to them in the last few days.
Firstly, Delphine, who has been with the choir for a long time now, came back from the vigil the other night to find that thieves had broken into her flat, left the place in a state and stolen her computer, TV, tablet, headphones and camera.
Secondly, some of you will know Natalia Santacreu. She lived in Grenfell Tower with her mum up until a few days ago, when she moved out into a flatshare, leaving her mum there. Thankfully, both her and her mum are safe, but they have lost all their possessions apart from a few basics which Natalie had brought to her new place.
We're a great community in LCV, and I'd like to raise some money to give to them. Will you contribute? It would be amazing to present them both with some money to help with replacing their possessions.
Please, please, give what you can. We manage to raise money for lots of charities - let's see what we can raise for our own.
By the way, I'd like this to be something of a surprise for them, so please, if you're friends with them on Facebook or some other social media platform and you share this, PLEASE EXCLUDE THEM FROM SEEING IT.
Thanks
Richard & Kate

7 years agoHi everyone Just to let you know that we've crossed the £5K threshold, which is fantastic news. Thank you SO much for your very generous donations! Please do share again, but remember to keep Delphine and Natalia out of the loop - I want this to be a lovely surprise for them. JustGiving projects automatically end after 30 days, although you can extend them up to 120 if you want - we'll probably allow it to end after 30 days, but if people are still giving then we'll carry on. Again, thank you for getting involved Richard x

It's so lovely to be part of a supportive and fun filled community. And it's amazing that when things are not so fun you offer more support. Great work.
