We are FOSE, the Friends Of St Edmunds, who are asking for your support with our next exciting fundraising event. This summer we are holding a huge charity auction supporting: • The Rowans Meerkats Service. Registered Charity Number: 299731. This is a charity that supports children and teenagers who are coping with a critical illness or bereavement in the family. • St Edmunds school library – as due to government budget cuts, without fundraising we will not be able to refurbish this area of the school. As you can see, we will be supporting two good causes and your donation would really make a difference. We know that you are very busy but even a small item will make a difference. Each of the items kindly donated to us will form a ‘lot’ in our auction. Some items will be grouped together and we aim to have 100 lots to auction off in July. No item is too small and anything goes,  Toys and gift items, unwanted presents,  Food and drink, bottles of wine, boxes of chocolates  Experiences, an hours tutoring, personal trainer, swimming lessons, odd jobs, gardening, cleaning.  Vouchers  Children’s parties -pool party, baking party We would like to ask that all lots are received by 29th June 2018 but please make us aware as soon as possible if you are willing to donate- this will help us organise collection, storage and (most importantly) thank you letters. The FOSE would like to thank you in advance for your kind offerings and we hope you are able to join us on the night, Friday 6th July.
