A few words from Lynn Son Kee:
 
This was truly an amazing event which poured forth such blessings from the generous hearts of those who attended and helped make a difference in the lives of the orphans of Ikhaya LikaBaba! When the inspiration to throw a fundraiser dinner and dance first came to me I trembled with trepidation since I had never embarked on trying to organize such a big event before. I shared this idea with my parents Gerry and Eunice and my dad (Gerry) set me on course right away with confidence saying that both he and my mother would help me organize everything!

I truly do not know what I would have done without my parents. We had many amazing sponsors which helped us put together some great gift baskets, silent auction items. More about our sponsors are on the fundraiser website: www.fullyalive4today.com

The plan was to attract 100 guests, and were totally bowled over by the response of those who wanted to support this cause and had 251 guests and completely sold out to the capacity of the banquet hall.

The event was held at Otello's banquet hall with a delicious sit down dinner. There was a saxophone player, a DJ, a stand up comedian and we also found time to hit the dance floor. The funds raised exceeded our targeted goal and will go towards Ikhaya's development fund to hire additional staff so that they can take in more babies into their loving home and care.

A HEART FELT THANK YOU FOR ALL THOSE WHO ATTENDED AND SUPPORTED THIS WORTHY CAUSE :)
