Haiti Appeal to DAFC fans

Lemonaid Charities largest delegation yet will head out to Haiti on Saturday the 20th of March from Dunfermline. The team made up of nurses, doctors, pharmacists, architects, welders, plumbers and football coaches have a packed diary of projects and plans lined up.

Delivering 1,500 kg of medicines and emergency supplies the team will work for up to two weeks in a number of areas including the Island of Lagonave and remote areas where no doctor has gone in years as the conditions are so bad.

Lemonaid are addressing the immediate and urgent needs as well as laying plans to raise up the children as great leaders in all professions as excellent leadership is required to sustain on going development.

Lemonaid have been amazed at the public support from local pars fans, scouts, churches, pharmacies, travel agents, sfa and so many others from the public. 250 musicians and artists recorded a single at Abbey road studios recently to help fund Lemonaid. Never before have we seen so many fundraising events around the town and UK for Lemonaid's work.

Two large concerts in aid of the work will take place beside Edinburgh airport in the highland showground in June that normally draws 6,000 plus supporters of Lemonaid. The www.frenzyfrenzy.com site has al the details.

Football coach Aaron Dowds will run an SFA backed football tournamant for hundreds of the street kids with a giant feast and party for all distributing toys, games and 1,500 glow sticks kindly donated for the occasion.

Lemonaid would like once again to thank all the great pars fans who have been in touch making enquiries and lending support.

I write this article from Vasteras in Sweden from one of the many churches around the world that we provide coaching, direction and oversight for and there interest and support of the work of Lemonaid is tremendous.
