PAM successfully raised £4,300 within 28days to feed people during the Coronavirus Pandemic crisis. This notable milestone would not have been possible without the contribution of over 50 supporters who share the same vision with PAM to help provide food to the vulnerable. This campaign kicked off on our social media platforms with active participation from our followers who helped to spread the word to reach potential donors and people in need.
With the outbreak of Covid-19, some of our beneficiaries were unable to access nutritious food through our partner restaurants. As a result, our volunteers at PAM have been working tirelessly to ensure that people are catered for. We have been doing this by dropping off emergency food boxes to support our most vulnerable people and their families within Portsmouth.
Our goal with the crowdfunding campagn was to raise £4,000 by the 4th June 2020. However, the generous support we received helped us to meet and exceed the goal. We were pleased to raise a total of £4,300 by the end of the campaign. The amount raised will help to fill more emergency boxes to be sent out to those in need.
Part of this fund will also help to complete the development of the PAM’s mobile application which can be used to further feed families, individuals and their loved ones. The support we have received will ensure that our volunteers continue to put a smile on people’s faces during and after the lockdown.
PAM sends out a big thank you to to everyone for taking the necessary steps to ensure that we continue to keep people’s spirit high within Portsmouth. Here are some comments from PAM’s donors and supporters –
Rommel: Worthy charity helping and supporting to feed vulnerable people
