With H.E.S. you can make a difference by hosting an event of any kind and with that raise money for a vital cause. No need to think big, just share your talent and/or hobby and invite a group of people. Not only do you contribute to a good cause, you also get people together in a social setting while doing something fun and worthwhile. Initiate ... an idea;
Create ... an event;
Donate ... and wat
ch our contributions grow! Everything is possible, a (potluck lunch), workshops for kids, an organised run or hike, a movie night, an art or cooking class, a rugby night, a soccer game ... the ideas are endless!! The event can be either public or private; we can help promote your event on our page. Just send us a message with when, what, where. How does this raise money? Simply by asking your visitors for a participation (donation) fee. After the event you donate the proceeds to H.E.S. by using the DONATE button on https://www.justgiving.com/hostaneventforsyria/ . All of the proceeds automatically are sent directly to Hand in Hand for Syria. Why Hand in Hand for Syria? Hand in Hand for Syria, who’s founders are either born in the UK of Syrian parentage or are Syrians living in Britain, is actually working INSIDE Syria where most other NGO’s can not work. With high risks involved their team is spread over Syria, taking an indispensable range of humanitarian aid directly where so many Syrian citizens are in desperate need of help.

The people behind H.E.S. Jacqueline Veen: "Instead of only talking I felt the urge of actually DOING something. In this way we offer a platform for everybody to help." Angela Eggerton: "Organising something simple for a gathering of friends and asking a small donation fee from them is so easy to do, anyone can do it. However the difference it can make if we all do a little is huge. Please support our organisation, HES, in 2016." Sanne Ossewaarde: "this way of fundraising contributes to the awareness of children about the tragic situation of refugees." Iris Schoonus: "I am inspired to contribute to this cause as it activates people to make a difference by using their own talents."
