Brian’s Good News 7 August 2020

Aberdeen Cyrenians has thanked all who have generously given to the AC2U campaign which was run in association with Foyer, Social Bite and CFINE.  Since the end of March, it has delivered 14,000 parcels of food, clothing, toiletries and blankets to those in need. This will continue over the summer months and into the winter also thanks to the Scottish Government's support to the FareShare network.  To contribute  food, toiletries and money, call the fund raising team on 0300 303 0903.

7 Year old Ethan from Pitmedden set off on a 10 km trek from Udny to Ellon with his dad Lewis .  Ethan was inspired to make the walk to raise funds for The Storehouse Foodbank which is run through Integrate Scotland  and Catalyst Vineyard Church by another youngster who ran a marathon over a month.  His mum Carly said that she hopes that that this will inspire others to raise money.  Over £900 has been raised by Ethan so far.  To contribute visit  paypal.me/Ethanswalk
