13th February 2015
People say Friday 13th is a day based on bad luck. Well not in Wolverhampton, as the Nagra family took over 4 Barclays and Santander banks to raise awareness about CRY and raise money through donations by selling cakes, samosas and raffle prizes.
The day was a huge success with the total amount raised over £1,000. The local community showed their support, with additional support coming from CRY Supporters who heard about the event through social media.
A member of the public quoted ” We have not heard about this charity before, but now I know I want to help support you with this cause.” Our aim is to continue to raise awareness of CRY and show the public why the screening events and the funding is so important. However fundraising hasn’t stopped there as the Nagra’s next event will be on Friday 13th March at the Ramada Park Hall Hotel Wolverhampton. A Dinner and Dance event. With tickets at just £20 for a 3 course meal, live music and a chance to win a holiday, it’s a great excuse to get dressed up and raise money for CRY. For more information please call Kully on 07595189115 or go onto Facebook and find CRY Spring Dinner and Dance.
