Fundraising update

It has been a while since my last post, but we have both been working hard on fitness and fundraising and are steadily improving in both areas!

We have been slowly accumulating funds with lots of little schemes.  Most are thanks to Gillian who has come up with several ingenious ways of making small amounts of cash - my favourite is the 'taxi service' charge for lifts!  People are always happy to donate when they hear about the cause.  It is so close to so many people's hearts.

Our honesty book stall has continued to make money as people donate their unwanted books and buy new ones for £1, and our pot for unwanted change in the company cafe has also been very successful.  The girls in the cafe love it as it is often a source of handy change for them!!

To date, we have generated £954.00 through our Just Giving site - http://www.justgiving.com/CubanWheels and our Coffee Morning final total has risen to £568.14.

When all things are added together we have a current total of £3,229.02.  Our target of £3,000 has been achieved!!

A huge thank you to everyone who has helped us get to this point.  We are, of course, continuing with our fundraising and have set a new target of £6k by August.

Stay tuned for an update on our training coming soon.
