Recent Fundraising and Donations
Rose Montgomery, a resident of many years at Hacienda del Álamo, was diagnosed with cancer a year ago. In August the residents held a music festival at the Sports Bar to cheer Rosie up after being in hospital and to raise money for MABS. Money was raised with Play Your Cards Right, a cake bake, bucket collections and the ‘Cava Ladies’ donated over 100€ collected from those ladies whose golf balls went into the water on the course. Altogether they raised an amazing 1,025€ for MABS, so a thank you to all involved. Sadly Rosie lost her battle with cancer at the beginning of September.
Camposol Fiesta & The Black Bull
On 28th August The Black Bull, Camposol B held the Camposol Fiesta ‘Big Show’ with money provided by the Fiesta Committee. Apart from an amazing afternoon and evening, the raffle raised a fabulous 700€ for MABS. A shout out to Michelle McKenzie and Aaron Maul, owners of The Black Bull, for topping the money up.
GlamJam on Camposol A
1st September saw GlamJam at Tel’s Bar/Cat’s Bar/Rendezvous where a brilliant 706€ was raised by the raffle. Once again thank you to all who contributed.
