Adam Deering, 32, a director of Manchester-based IT and
hardware service provider Globenet Solutions Limited, is giving his backing to the Happy House.
Adam,
who lives in Manchester, said: “In meeting and talking with Sue I have found her to be one
of the most inspirational people I have ever come across, her selfless devotion
to all the kids at the Happy House which she sees as her duty inspires me with
faith in the human race and that with love, education and devotion anything can
be achieved
“Getting
to know Sue, her husband, Dave, and their Happy House family, has helped
me remain humble and keeps me grounded it also gives me a level of
understanding that life isn't about collecting
material possessions for oneself, that if you are in a position to
help others then it will give you more personal reward than owning anything
material in this world.
“Some
of the children’s stories are heartbreaking but knowing that they are now
smiling and enjoying life warms and touches my heart.”
Mr
Deering has helped the Happy House with cash donations and also by encouraging staff
to take part in dress down days and other fundraising activities.
He
is also in discussions with various business associates for their involvement
in raising money to help take the Happy House family forward.
Mr
Deering’s most recent donation came just at the right time as the both the
washing machine and the fridge had broken and been deemed beyond repair.
Mama
Sue said: “I was able to replace them without having to worry about where the
money was coming from. Unexpected breakdowns are always a worry to a small
charity like our own.
“Anyone can imagine just how vital a fridge
and a washing machine are to a family of 80 children from babies to teenagers!
“We
are looking forward to Adam coming out to see us sometime so that he can meet
all the children he has heard so much about.”
