Spend spend spend!
One of the best bits about volunteering with DRS is when we get to spend money!!!
No. Not on new shoes or a new phone, a pedicure or a manicure…
Thanks to YOUR generosity, whether by donating clothes and other items, organising or contributing to fundraising events or by helping us to pay our rent, we have managed to accumulate nearly £4000 to spend on helping refugees by donating as follows:
£1000 winter tents for Calais
£500 Donate4Refugees
£500 Medical Aid for Palestine
£250 Seawatch Mediterranean
£250 RNLI
£250 Care4Calais
£250 C4C Derby
.... and £900 for 10 refurbished bikes from Lifectycle UK
So, to add to a thank you from DRS, here are some more…
Dear DRS Care4Calais - Donation receipt
Thank you for donating to our #Coats4Calais campaign. Your donation will help keep a refugee warm this winter.
Dear DRS
Thank you so much for your generous donation of £250.00 to support RNLI lifesavers like me through the Mayday appeal.
We feel so much more confident that we'll be able to help those who need us this summer, now that we know we have you beside us. This year, we can get back to the beach and honestly say: 'Wish you were here!'
Dear DRS
Thank you for your donation of £500.00 to Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP). You have done something amazing – you have helped Palestinians living under occupation and as refugees
