*****Kicks for Kids Season Ticket Fundraiser 20-21*****

[FranckSuzy]

In these uncertain times, our team needs our support more than ever and to that end, *32 KfK STs were purchased tonight = **£2,720 to Hibs :not worth

Whilst being well aware that not everyone is in a position to contribute, or even what shape next season will take, it felt like the time was right to launch next season's fundraiser and to do something positive :flag:

Since 2013, 1,022 KfK STs have been purchased and if you would like to read about the difference they make to children's lives, please see here: https://leithlinks4kids.com/social-media/feedback/ That amount of tickets also means £76,970 has been donated to Hibs - by the fans - which is a remarkable amount :thumbsup:

IF you would like to contribute, and no matter the amount, you can do so by PayPal (leithlinks@live.co.uk), bank transfer or cheque - whichever way is easiest for you :agree:

Thanks, as ever, to everyone who has supported the fund over the years and to Hibs.net for allowing all of the various fundraisers :aok:

* More purchases are planned tonight, there was just a limit of the amount of money that could be transferred over :greengrin

**Please note: Hibs have increased the price of the tickets (the first time since 2002) from £75 to £85

I’ve increased my monthly payment. Sorry it’s not more but being in the HORECA industry there’s no much certainty going forward at the moment. Hope it helps a little.

For anyone interested I caught up with Susan about Leith Links and the importance of the season tickets when football returns for both the club and the families and groups who will benefit from them:

Huge thanks for Susan for taking the time to send over some answers to my questions - a brilliant initiative which doesn't happen by itself.

Great work as ever Suzy and to those who have donated.

Out of interest Suzy, do you manage to secure enough people at each game to take the KFK STs you purchase? If not, I’m wondering if the support can help by suggesting organisations / charities who would benefit from the KFK initiative?

Hi there

There is usually no problem in allocating tickets and in fact, most groups would take more if they were available.
Always happy to receive nominations though as there can be wee organisations that not many people are aware of :aok:

Received with thanks and cheers for your email:thumbsup:

Saturday signalled the return of the children who receive Kicks for Kids STs and we've already received lovely feedback from the Jack Kane Centre:

"Is it really happening the first time in what seems forever that the Happy Hibby group is back at Easter Road watching @HibernianFC (https://twitter.com/HibernianFC)
. The suns out and now to meet up at Leith San Siro...thanks so much to @LeithLinks4Kids (https://twitter.com/LeithLinks4Kids)
......"

and

"Its you and the people like you that are brilliant.....thanks again the children and young people loved the experience and the sunshine"

A lovely 'thank you' was received today, from the Kinship Support Team 👏

"I am writing to you on behalf of two kinship families who were able to make use of tickets for the Hibs V St Johnstone game on Sunday 26.9.21.

The young people who benefitted from receipt of the tickets and their respective carers would like to say a big thank you for providing them with the opportunity to attend.

In both cases, the young people have not been to many games so getting the opportunity to attend a game is extra special and the win made it even more memorable.


A big thank you too on behalf of the Kinship Support Team".

These are the sort of initiatives I love to read. We need to grow or number of young supporters, as well as the Kicks for kids
