Valerie Edden's Class Group from the Selly Oak Methodist Church organised a lovely charity fundraising event called 'Come dine with us' with all the proceeds going to LUCIA. The congregation was invited to take part by either cooking or attending an evening meal. Those who attended paid what they thought would be the price of an evening out at a restaurant. The evenings were enjoyed by all and raised the amazing amount of £1093.75.

LUCIA would like to thank Valerie and her class for all the work they put in to raise this wonderful amount. Without people like the Selly Oak Methodist Congregation there would not be a LUCIA charity that gives hope for a better future for so many in Ethiopia.
