πŸŽ‰ Charity Night in Support of Aberdeen Foyer πŸŽ‰
We're incredibly grateful to John Hamilton for choosing to support Aberdeen Foyer through his fundraising efforts. πŸ’œ
This September, John is hosting a fantastic Charity Night packed with live entertainment, Rock and Roll Bingo, a buffet, raffle and disco, with every penny raised helping Aberdeen Foyer continue supporting young people and adults across our communities to build brighter, more independent futures.
It takes commitment, generosity and a huge amount of hard work to organise events like this, and we're so thankful for everything John is doing to make a difference.
If you're looking for a great night out while supporting a local cause, we'd love for you to get involved.
Email John: [email protected]
or visit his page JHM Disco & Karaoke to book your ticket.
The event is part of John's wider fundraising challenge as he prepares to take on the Manchester Half Marathon in October in support of Aberdeen Foyer. You can support him here: https://loom.ly/zLBdB-c
A huge thank you, John. Your continued support means the world to us.
