Riziki Children's Organisation
Nakuru, Kenya
Our chosen charity for this year - 2024
For all those who have recently visited our website, you will have noticed that we, that is Gaggia UK, is fully funding / sponsoring a concert ‘Musical Moments in May’ to be held at Lindley Methodist Church, Huddersfield on Saturday, 11th May. (This includes paying for the venue hire, hire of the choirs, the string quartet, and any other costs.)
For this year, 2024, we have chosen to support ‘Riziki’ Children’s Home in Nakuru, Kenya where they take in ‘street children’ giving them a better life from that of scavenging for their next meal on the rubbish tips, food, shelter, clothes and shoes etc., (all that the child needs). These children also receive the best school education. The ultimate aim is that when the children leave the home and go out into the ‘big, wide world’ they are equipped with all they need to be able to get a good job and support themselves. So, on our part, all money raised from the sale of tickets to the event, the revenue from the sale of raffle tickets on the day and any other fundraising activity happening, running up to the day of the concert, will all be given to the charity in its entirety without any cost of concert deductions. How can you, our Gaggia subscribers support this event? One thing that COVID taught us as a business was the power of the video conferencing platform ‘Zoom’ allowing people to interact with each other, not only in this country but around the world. So we are going to stream the concert live on Zoom allowing both our Gaggia subscribers, and those who support Riziki from different parts of the UK to purchase a ‘Zoom’ ticket for the concert and they will then be sent the link to join in and watch the concert live online from anywhere in the country (or even the world). We are also holding an online raffle open to our online subscribers and other people who visit our website, for the chance to win a ‘Limited Edition – Gold coloured – Classic coffee machine’. The raffle tickets cost £10 each. If you are interested in taking part in either watching the concert or purchasing a raffle ticket please visit our website where you will find the links to the concert ticket and raffle competition page. |
