Story
Who am I?
Hey! My Name is Shawn/Fergenht, I'm 24 years old and at the age of 4 I was diagnosed with childhood Leukaemia. While in hospital I fell down with meningitis and spent a majority of my childhood and teenage life at the former Yorkhill.
Why am I doing this?
On March 25th 2021 I ran my first event of this nature, and it performed way beyond my wildest dreams. Of a goal of £100, a collective £1,635 was raised with 255 easter eggs being donated to the Schiehallion ward from local donations, and kind hearted people donating money to buy eggs from all over the world, reaching from the UK, US and Dubai.
This is my second year running the event, and I want to take it to greater heights, my goal by the end of 2022 is to raise £5,000 for this charity. I’d love to beat last years goal, and get as many people involved in this project for such a great cause.
Why this charity?
Everybody knows Covid has impacted their own lives in some way or another, but being a kid stuck in a hospital is hard enough and given the strict guidelines some kids wont be able to leave their hospital rooms at all, I want to make their lives even just a little easier in any way possible.
If you choose to donate, the money is going directly to giving children who need the little things in life to feel a bit better right now, be it new toys to play with or some snacks for a movie.
On top of your donation, I am pledging any money I make from subs/bits/donations to my twitch channel this month on top of the final total.
When?
I will be live on my twitch channel at 12PM GMT on 16/04/2022, and we'll have donation goals coming in the next few days! The more we make, the sillier things get!: https://twitch.com/fergenht
