Last year we raised a phenomenal <\/strong>R44 792 (about 2 750 \u20ac at the time)!<\/strong> Thank you again to EVERYONE who chipped in!!! <\/strong><\/p>\n That money has supported Jenny through this trying year – when she contracted Covid 19 herself – luckily a very mild case. She expressed her immense gratitude for being in a home that took excellent care of her, and our deepest thanks go to all of the carers who helped her in and out of her bed and her wheelchair, washed her every day and did many other things that don’t allow for any distance. Jenny recovered fully and was causing trouble again in no time.<\/p>\n Now, we\u2019re looking to cover her expenses for 2021.<\/p>\n Our Fundraising Goal<\/strong>: By 30 November 2020 we want to raise R 66 000 (ca. 3 500 \u20ac)<\/strong><\/p>\n The plan is to do so by getting<\/p>\n In order to reach these goals, in South Africa, we\u2019re looking for:<\/p>\n Internationally (from all the countries with TROUBLE fans, including Britain, Sweden, Germany, New Zealand) we\u2019re looking for:<\/p>\n “Regular contributions”<\/strong> mean that sponsors (maybe you?) commit to transferring a small amount (let\u2019s say R50 \/ 5 \u20ac) every month for one year, from December 2020 until November 2021. Of course, we\u2019ll be very happy if sponsors extend their support beyond that, but we will check in with everyone after a year to see if that is possible.<\/p>\n If a monthly commitment is not your thing, one-off donations are also very, very welcome! <\/strong>Even small amounts really help!<\/p>\n If you can make a contribution, please write to fundraisingfortrouble(at)gmail.com <\/a>and we will send you Jenny\u2019s banking details (we have fundraising accounts in South Africa and Germany or you can transfer via Paypal.

\nNow we get to the good stuff, where we can give our generous sponsors something back! There will be a prize draw in Berlin for our German supporters (unfortunately, we can\u2019t open it up to everyone, as postage fees are too high).<\/p>\n<\/a>Here\u2019s how it works: For every 10 \u20ac you donate or pledge, your name goes into the hat for the lucky draw at the end of the fundraiser. The names of people who pledge more than 10 \u20ac go into the hat more than once \u2013 so the name of someone who pledges 5 \u20ac a month for a year (60\u20ac in total) goes into the hat 6 times.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
