FW: Lent Appeal - Paupers Supper
[The CFS Research Foundation website is http://www.cfsrf.com . Tom]
Hi - Permission to repost
Lent Appeal - Paupers Supper
Today is Ash Wednesday the beginning of Lent and this is an appeal on
behalf
of the CFS Research Foundation. As you know it is traditional to give
up
something for Lent in the hope that something good will come out of it.
One such tradition is the Paupers Supper, where a meal is replaced with
a
bowl of soup and a bread roll. The difference in the cost of meal and
the
bowl of soup is then put aside into a jar every time this is done and
at the
end of lent the money donated to a charity.
I shall be doing this for the CFS Research Foundation, I wonder if any
more
out there well enough sufferer, carer or friend would like to join me.
Donations at the end of lent could be sent to the foundation at:
The CFS Research Foundation, 2 The Briars, Sarratt, Rickmansworth,
Hertfordshire WD3 6AU, United Kingdom. Tel: 01923 268641 Fax: 01923
260352
The Foundation will be made aware of this appeal, and will no doubt
welcome
it as they would welcome any donations from it. Should anyone want to
gift
aid their donation, and make it worth 28% more, e mail me off list and
Ill
send you a form.
