Draw a Smile
Draw a Smile members attended a charity dinner for Gaza and managed
to raise £370 which was donated to those in need in Gaza.
We are currently working on building connections with orphanages in
Egypt and have a network of Draw a Smile members in Egypt.
Meetings are being conducted in both Cairo and Alexandria to discuss
Draw a Smile in Egypt. If you are interested in joining Draw a Smile,

Draw a Smile team members have managed to raise this total of donations in a short period of time from the following events:
CHARITY DINNER
Monday 14th December Charity Dinner was a great success. A total of £316.40 was raised!
All the guests and members enjoyed themselves and had great fun, especially during the raffle and quiz prizes that took place.
