Kelaine's JLL COVID-19 Poverty Awareness Appeal
Kelaine Blades is raising money for Junior League of London
Team: JLL BoTs
Story
We wear black because 27% of Londoners live in poverty and
coronavirus will place the greatest strain on people who are already vulnerable.
The LBDI COVID19 Poverty Appeal raises awareness of the impact of COVID-19 on poverty in London. While this is still an emerging issue, the challenges facing those in poverty are already increasing as we see growing demands on the foodbanks and additional needs for the homeless and those in refuges.
For 4 days, I will be wearing a black dress or outfit as a symbol of solidarity in times of crisis; in recognition of all that Londons volunteers & essential workers are doing; and to raise funds for those working with Londons most vulnerable.
Could you give the equivalent of your daily commute, weekly coffee fund or a dinner out?
Together we can make a difference.
