We've raised an astounding £15,000, surpassing our initial target of £7,000. This incredible achievement is a direct result of the overwhelming support from the Kendal community.

• Reaching our goal and beyond: The initial target of £7,000 was met within the first week, a testament to the generosity of the Kendal community.
• Exceeding expectations: The total raised now stands at £15,000, exceeding our target by a significant margin.

"We are absolutely overwhelmed by the generosity shown by the people of Kendal," says Sarah Jones, the fundraiser organizer. "This incredible increase in donations will make a life-altering difference for Poppy." This success story showcases the power of community support and the significant impact even small donations can have when combined.

How the Doubled Donations Will Impact Poppy Atkinson

The doubled donations will dramatically improve Poppy Atkinson's quality of life and access to crucial medical care. The additional funds will directly cover:
