East Cowes Bertholders raise money for Kids Out charity

3rd November 2009

East Cowes Marina bertholders have raised £1296, through their annual party, which has been donated to the KIDSOUT Charity, providing fun and happiness to disadvantaged children throughout the UK. Part of this money was raised from ticket sales, and part through sponsorship of Assistant Manager Tara Perris and husband Stewart McDonald's "Italian Job" Mini Adventure. Many of the children Kidsout helps have physical, social, health or learning disabilities while others face less obvious challenges, such as turbulent or financial deprived backgrounds. For the annual Rotary Kidsout Day Out more than 27000 children are taken out for a day of fun and laughter at over 100 venues all over the country. The mission of the fun and happiness charity is to transform the lives of disadvantages children by providing fun opportunities and positive experiences that work to significantly enhance their wellbeing and outlook for a happier future.
