Help raise funds for Be Enriched – making means for vulnerable people

Here’s the letter from Kemi who runs that project incorporating Brixton People’s Kitchen

As you know Be Enriched has been operating for the past 4 years cooking 3 course meals for vulnerable people, each week from several different locations across South London.

We’ve managed to cook over 4000 meals in the past year. This also means we’ve hand washed around 12000 dishes!

So thanks for all support you’ve given by volunteering or giving your professional support.

The issue is we can only operate 3 times a week, from 3 different bases and yet food poverty affects people all of the time.

We launched  Crowdfunder to raise funds so we can have our own building running community meals and much much more every day of the week.

We know you think our project is worthwhile so please could you pledge your support here:

Our projects have helped people like Stella, 85, living on her own with only her radio for company. Stella fell down a few times and spent a day on the floor waiting for someone to visit. She would often go for the whole week without talking to another soul. Through our projects she has a reason to go out, has built networks and made friends who pop in and check on her. And of course she eats a hot meal at least once a week and always has access to fresh fruit and veg.

Please help us reach a threshold of £8,000 by 24th April in order to be match funded.

Be one of the first people to make a donation in the next 48 hrs giving us a real shot at making our goal:

We’re also going to need your help spreading the word!

Please share this opportunity with your friends, family and professional networks!

Thank you, as always, for your continued support!
