Zainab's Raffle for Queens tennis tickets for EBAT
Fundraising for Elena Baltacha Foundation
Story
One year ago on 4th May 2014 we lost an amazing girl Elena Baltacha to liver cancer. Before she passed away she had set up a charity organisation Elena Baltacha's Academy of Tennis (EBAT)
Her aim was to give more children, from all backgrounds, the opportunity to learn to play tennis. The Elena Baltacha Foundation is committed to making sure Elena's work continues and that they keep enriching kids' lives through sport. Bally's legacy will live on! We will never forget her!
In order to help raise money for this great charity, I am raffling off
One pair of Queens Tennis Club centre court tickets for the opening day of the tournament (15th June 2015)
Queens tennis tournament is a great event featuring 8 of the top 13 players in the world this year! http://www.lta.org.uk/major-events/aegon-championships/

A note from Elena Foundation about the work they do and your support
Not one for a big fuss was Bally - typical really and selfless as al...ways.
A big thankyou to everyone who has been involved in this wonderful project over the past 12 months, players, parents, staff and all who have been so kind to make a donation - everyone has played their part in keeping this dream alive and ensuring that Elena's vision & legacy continues.
Over 9000 school children have been given an opportunity to pick up a racket over the past 12 months - why? because of Bally's vision and because of you. Every single donation helps - gives an opportunity, a dream.
