Xmas Party raises over £3,000 for homeless charity
An amazing £3,261 was raised for the charity, CRISIS, following Dr Nilesh R. Parmar’s recent fundraising event, the Ice White Xmas Party.
He said, “The event was a huge success, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank those who attended and helped to raise an incredible amount for CRISIS.”
CRISIS, the national charity for homeless people, is dedicated to ending homelessness by delivering life-changing services and campaigning for change.
Dr Parmar added, “With new figures from CRISIS illustrating that homelessness in England has risen by 23%, it’s important that this escalating problem is highlighted and the charity gets the support it needs to help the homeless, especially in these cold winter months.”
Taking place at the trendy Holburn House, London, the event hosted a raffle, which saw guests win an iPhone 5; a holiday; spa day; designer dress; luxury driving experience day; personal training session; and teeth whitening treatment. All proceeds from the raffle went to CRISIS, along with funds gained through Just Giving online donations and bar takings.
The event was sponsored by Astra Tech (Dentsply Implants), Digimax, Enlighten and Manan Ltd. Over 300 guests were welcomed by a parade of supercars, alluding to the luxury-filled evening ahead; as well as a champagne reception. The live entertainment, provided by fire performers; and the “dental implant” ice luge, certainly wowed guests. Furthermore, a specially constructed photo booth allowed guests to keep a memento of the successful evening.
