World AIDS Day - Fundraising update and thanks.
£11,000 raised for LGB and HIV good causes...so far.
Fundraising across Manchester helped to raise over £11,000 for LGB and HIV good causes through the cities initiatives for World Aids Day.
Manchester’s HIV Candlelit Vigil on December 1st, and street collections throughout the city centre over the weekend raised over £6,000 which will be distributed between The Lesbian and Gay Foundation and George House Trust.
The Lesbian and Gay Foundation, raised a further £5,000 from events in the gay village with more monies still coming in. Emma Peate LGF’s Fundraising Manager said: “We’d like to thank everyone who bought a red ribbon, held fundraisers, put money in our collection tins and supported the charities over World Aids Day.” “It’s heart warming to know that people have been so generous during these particularly hard financial times, and that World Aids Day is as important to our community now as it ever was.”
