The Katkids Christmas Market took place on Tuesday December 4, 2007.
Thank you so much to everyone who contributed to another great KatKids event! It may have taken us weeks to organise it but only a couple of hours to raise a fantastic total of $25,798!
Over two hundred people came to the KatKids Christmas Market at Goslings Wine Cellar on December 4th and the event was a tremendous success. We transformed Goslings into a bustling Christmas market where our guests enjoyed mulled wine, mince pies and carols played by the brilliant kids from Bermuda School of Music, while they perused our unique gift stalls, bought Katkids gift certificates, had a go in our raffle or bid on our silent auction. It was a perfect festive party to kick off the holiday season with.
The money raised really will make tangible improvements to the lives of children and families in serious need in Nepal and Uganda. Approximately $1,500-2,500 (raised from the sale of Ugandan crafts) will go to ISIS supported projects in Uganda and the rest (over $20,000) will go to the projects that the ISIS Foundation supports in Nepal.
We’re so grateful to everyone who contributed goods and/or services to the event, as well as everyone who came along and bought, bid or donated on the night. Here’s to another great event!
We look forward to seeing you all again in 2008!
