Happy Sunday

🎉 QUITE A HAUL TODAY! 🎉

What a day for the Big Christmas Raffle! 🎄🎟️

✨ 2 NEW COMMUNITY PARTNERS
🎁 3 NEW PRIZES
🥳 AND A RAFFLE PARTY IN THE PIPELINE!

We are delighted to welcome Everest Restaurant in Albir as a Community Partner for the first time. The newly reformed restaurant has generously donated a Menu del Día for 2 people, giving the lucky winner the chance to enjoy a delicious meal from their range of menus.

A huge thank you to the team at Everest for jumping on board and supporting the Alfaz Food Bank! ❤️

🍻 And there's more...

The Pig 'n' Whistle Pub in Benidorm's Old Town have also joined us this year and have come in with a fantastic 2 x €25 vouchers to spend at the bar.

But they didn't stop there! Helen and Lee have also promised to host a Big Christmas Raffle party for us — date to be decided! 🥳🎶

A massive thank you to Helen and Lee for their kindness and generosity. ❤️

The Pig 'n' Whistle have come straight in with 4 Community Partner stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐ and we're pretty sure that a raffle party, with plenty of ticket sales on the night, could see those stars climbing even higher! 🌟

Every partner, every prize and every ticket makes a difference.

And with the press launch getting closer, we're building something pretty special. 💪🎄

Who's going to be next to join us? 👀
