Absolutely. After last night reading that list has raised my spirits more than a little.

The generous Hibs fan who donated £1,000 has graciously agreed that, in the evient of the donations received outstripping the groups who can use tickets, they are happy for the remaining balance to be put towards Kicks for Kids season tickets for 15/16 This means that EVERY single penny of the donations sent in by ordinary fans () will go towards tickets for Saturday.

It also means that many more children will be able to attend EVERY Hibs game, which can only be a positive move.

Finally, I cannot thank those who have donated enough, as the groups who have been contacted were absolutely delighted to be offered a chance to go to the game. It makes you extremely proud to be a Hibby

That's some list! Credit again has to go to Paco for suggesting this and for Suzy for all her hard work again.

Absolutely. Brilliant idea and hopefully, this has brought Kicks for Kids/Leith Links to more people's attention Fundraising is still going on for next season's KfK STs.....

I think the kicks for kids donations should also be promoted. It would be great to get a whole bunch on season tickets so these kids can go anytime next season as well. Also 100% of what is raised goes to club. But great effort to everyone who has donated so far.

Does anyone know how much it is for the kick for kids season tickets and who deals with it??

Yes It's £75 and you can either purchase it direct from the Hibs ticket office or via Leith Links. Either way, the cash goes into the Manager's transfer pot and more children can attend games

im miserable today but this has cheered me up. Now lets get more seasons for the kids next yeat

[FranckSuzy]

A late addition to the list is KITS (Kids In The Street), who provide free football sessions to children in the Craigmillar area. This has come about due to the juggling of ticket numbers to some groups

Great to see so many deserving people benefiting from the fund. Great work.

[pacorosssco]

When I had this idea I never could off imagined its success but I hope it doesnt end here I hope this is just the start. Imagine year on year if we could raise 500 seasons for those in need of a lift and our next generation

Please pass on our sincere thanks to all supporters who contributed, for their overwhelming generosity in welcoming these children into The Hibernian Family.

It is extremely humbling for me to be able to offer such opportunities to groups of children, who would otherwise be unable to attend, and to hear the joy, excitement and gratitude in the voices of their support workers is the best part of my job!

Thank you all so, so much for making a difference! This is why we have the greatest Club in the world! #wearehibernianfc #proudtobeahibby

Kind regards
Sue"

I received a lovely email today, from Kids In Care, one of the groups who received tickets for Saturday's game plus KfK STs

"I am just writing to thank you and Leith Links for your support throughout the year for Kids in Care. Sue has been great all season in securing tickets for some of my young folk and has said you provided great support throughout the year. I am so pleased that groups such as the Leith Links are willing to support our young folk who would not have the opportunity to attend matches under normal circumstances.

Although the result was a disappointment I’m hoping next year will be more productive for us.

Thanks again and please pass on my thanks to all your members.

Glory Glory"

That's great to hear. Hopefully they'll benefit from tickets again next year.

For anyone that would like to donate but hasn't as yet it costs as little as £6.25 per month to help buy a Kicks for Kids season ticket. See this link: http://leithlinks4kids.com/ways-to-donate/
