Hi <<First Name>>
Thank you for your continued support to Isaac's House charity. Please see below our latest newsletter which we hope you enjoy reading.
We would like to thank everyone who donated towards our emergency appeal to help Connie and family. The support has been incredible and we keep you updated on the progress for the family and their home.
We would also like to inform of you two fundraising events to add to your diary. On Sunday 29th September we have a Ladies Afternoon Tea at Oh Me Oh My in Liverpool and on Saturday 28th October a Wine and Cheese evening at Formby Gild Hall.
Thank you for all the support.
Love,
The Isaac's House Team

Thank you Pappa Charles…
Our lovely Pappa Charles is retiring. Charles has been a huge part of the Isaac’s House family for 10 years. Charles first came to us for help as a single father of Moris and Denis. Charles was living in a slum area by the shores of Lake Victoria and working as a night watchman in the evenings.
