#FundraisingFriday: Leon Banks

June 17, 2016

Leon Banks - Letter — “Hello, my name is Leon. I am 6 years old. I have raised £100 for CLAPA, I did this by collecting pennies from my family and friends. At Easter my mum knitted chicks and sold them with chocolate eggs inside. Can I please have a certificate to show my teacher? Love from Leon”

For this week’s #FundraisingFriday we really wanted to share this super cute story from Leon. As you can see, Leon got in touch with a letter to tell us how he and his family chose to fundraise for CLAPA.

We’re sure you all agree that this DEFINITELY deserves a certificate, and there’s one on its way to Leon as we type this! What a fundraising superstar!

As Leon says, Mandi, his mum, knitted little chickens for them to sell – they were so popular that they are already getting requests for more next Easter! It’s not hard to see why they would be in such demand!
