We Met Our Crowdfunder Target (Twice!)

It has been six weeks since we launched our very first Crowdfunder campaign in partnership with Aviva. On Tuesday we came to the end of our campaign and we are very pleased to announce that we met not only one fundraising target, but two! 

We smashed past our initial target of £1000 in just under a fortnight. We then extended it again to £1500 which we reached during our in-person team meeting two weeks ago. So we were so excited to be able to extend it once again to £1750 with just over a week to go. So, without further ado, we are pleased to announce that we have raised a grand total of £1606! This means we will be able to fund even more befriending activities than we initially anticipated!

We would like to say a huge ‘thank you’ to everyone who liked, shared, spread the work and donated in the last two months. Everything you have done has helped not only to raise money but also to raise awareness for us and our work, so THANK YOU!  All the funds we raised will help us hold a series of wellbeing events to support lonely and isolated people in their transition out of lockdown restrictions.

There is still plenty of time to donate. Our project page is still up and we will soon be able to enable regular donations going forward. This means that we will be able to accept monthly donations towards this project. To find out more, take a look at our project page: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/pathways-to-wellbeing-1

Thank you!
