A Rebel and a Saint Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Hi all, I've been told about a great opportunity for fans of STFC to help out with a local charity at our game against Burnham on Easter Monday. Burnham FC are doing a charity collection for Happy Feet 4 Ethan (http://happyfeet4ethan.co.uk/ and on Facebook) which is raising money for 8 year old Ethan Quinn, who has Cerebral Palsy, to have an operation known as SDR which will allow him to keep being active. His family and many others have been fundraising through many events and have raised over £30,000 of the £50,000 that they need to pay for the operation and the aftercare that is needed to keep Ethan moving. Here is a newpaper article about him from earlier this year: http://www.sloughobserver.co.uk/news/roundup/articles/2013/01/11/65718-sevenyearold-ethan-on-the-waiting-list-for-lifechanging-operation/ I have agreed to help them with a bucket collection at the Burnham game and have said that our large support would help them out by throwing in plenty to help them out. Ethan has been a member of my Beaver Scout Colony in Taplow for the last 2 years or so and has been an inspiration during his time with us, never letting his condition get the better of him and taking part in every activity. I hope you will all give generously! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
