Story

I am fundraising to support the Martin James Foundation's work with their partner FAMadagascar. During the Covid-19 lockdown, the Government relocated homeless people in Madagascar's capital city to a shelter. With MJF's support, FAM was able to help several pregnant in the shelter move to safer accommodations close to a maternity hospital. The project has already successfully prevented children from being separated from their families and entering orphanages. But with your help, we can do more!All money raised through this campaign will enable FAM to support these mothers and their families reintegrate back into the community after being homeless.FAM's cofounder said, "I find it hard to think of anything more tragic and unjust in this world than a child being separated from a birth family due to poverty. Many of our families seriously considered abandoning their children to an orphanage at some point. It is a privilege to be involved in preventing this in Madagascar".


Upcoming Events:

Monday 27th September 11am – Litter Pick in Harborne

We will be hitting the streets of Harborne picking litter to help out in our new home for Holy Moly.

Whilst our restaurant is still in the process of being refurbished we wanted to show our community spirit and commitment to our new home whilst also raising money for a very worthy cause.


Monday 4th October 10am – Coffee Morning at Vicarage Court, 'Serving the Network'

Coffee and cake morning offering a selection of treats and cakes along with hand-crafted artisan coffee, tea and hot chocolate. We will be serving Iced Coffee and V60’s (Pour-overs/slow drip) too for those real coffee nerds!
