HOPING for Children benefit auction

The HOPING Foundation Benefit Auction held at Annabel's, London on 15th May raised over £230,000.

Two hundred guests enjoyed an evening of Promises and we are immensely grateful to members of the Committee and everyone involved in creating and supporting a most memorable evening.

HOPING has already been able to help many children's projects in the refugee camps (link to projects).

On a hot summer's day, the trustees of HOPING were invited to join four enthusiastic boys from Millwall Community Scheme to whom the promise of a cricket lesson with Imran Khan had been donated.

One of them commented "The day was great because we got taught how to bowl and how to bat... and you got to play cricket with a proper guy who has played professionally".
