Fundraising

Company sponsorship: In 2009/2010 we were awarded with an international grant of £15,000 by the Accounting and Advisory firm Mazars LLP for our school project in Konya and £2000 from the Waterloo Foundation for our water projects. In 2011 we received £5000 from the European Patent Office which will sponsor a tractor in 2012. We are very grateful for this generous support. If you represent a company that wants to help us financially, do please get in contact with us. As a sponsor, your company’s name can get a prominent position on our website and can be represented at all our activities. If you need more information email info@hopeforkonya.com

  • Fundraising events: Highlights in 2010 were our Charity Dinner, sponsored Marathons in London and the annual Summer party at Kish Kindergarten. Last year Kish raised more than £2100 for us.
  • Private sponsorship: We have found private sponsors for the past 2 years for ten orphaned children in Konya who could not afford the fees at secondary school. We also get donations from supporters, who collect money from friends and family at birthday parties. In 2009 participants at a first communion service in Richmond decided to give the entire collect (£600) to Hope for Konya.
