The lovely ladies of Poulton Tangent Club gave Elizabeth Gomm a very warm welcome when she went along to their meeting at Singleton Lodge Hotel tell them all about our Happy House family.Invited by Sheila Dickinson, who sponsors our Francis, Elizabeth was delighted to see Mrs Donnelly, who is in Neema's sponsor family.
The ladies were so interested in the story of how Mama has started her journey which led to the Happy House, putting hundreds of children in education in the three schools she debeloved on the way.
A collection raised a wonderful £120 and the club is also sending a donation to our family.
Thank all for being so generous.
In Blackpool today
If you are in Blackpool today please come and support our Happy House stall at Blackpool Civic Trust's Civic Day at St John's Church Hall (opposite the Winter Gardens)
It starts at 10.30am and runs until 3.30pm and we will have a stand with a tombola, and lots of information about the Happy House. There will be 20 stalls with lots of variety and the cafe will be open for refreshments. Admission is free.
If you have been thinking about sponsoring a child and want to know more come along to see us and we will be happy to help.
It costs just 65p a day - £20 a month - to change a child's life, and your own, forever.
