Christian Aid house-to-house collections throughout the Parish raised a total of ?827-55 this year.
If you include the £120 from the retiring collection after the Ditcham Park school concert in St. Mary's, and around £70 reclaimable via Gift Aid, we topped £1000.
THANK YOU to all who gave, walked, stood and spoke on doorsteps, and counted.
You have all helped to rid the world of poverty and bring justice to all people.
As always, Buriton will be supporting this anuual fund-raising drive for the poor and disadvantaged. Christian Aid aims to attract support for its projects not just from the church community but from all quarters. Collection envelopes will be distributed in advance and collected house-to-house.
Volunteers to collect will soon be recruited: look out for furhter details. Buriton's involvement (volunteers, street rounds, etc.) is being co-ordinated by Maggie Burton-Page with A.N.Other.
Let's aim to beat all records!
