A big thank you to all our hardy volunteers out rattling collecting buckets across London tube stations on a cold and windy Saturday 13 February.  We managed to raise £722 to be spent on equipment and supplies that Haidar will bring over to Najaf in April.  The Foundation owe a big thank you to Mehdi Mohammed Ali, tireless organiser of the student fundraising drive without whom the event would never have happened.   Look out for our video which we’ll put up soon – in the meantime, some pictures of the day.
