Fundraising
Burgerseeds Parties are proud to announce successfully raising £173 at Perth Race course on 15 July - Golden Cup Race Day. A donation box was set in front of the inflatable entertainment equipment and throughout the afternoon an impressive collection through kind donations from spectators had accumulated. Burgerseeds Parties matched the amount raised and sent off a donation of £346 to their favourite charity Berudep. Monies raised were donated to the Berudep’s sponsor an orphan project support fund and will be used to help facilitate the ongoing operation of the project in Cameroon.
The BIG Woop!
The end of the summer and first successful business year for Burgerseeds Parties was marked this year by the first ever BIG Woop! The BIG Woop was organised to give something back to the friends, family and customers of Burgerseeds Parties who have given us such overwhelming support in our first year. The mini festival was held on New Milne Farm near Perth and showcased live performances from 6 local bands and 3 DJ’s. With an arctic lorry for a stage, marquees, bouncy castles, camping and a 5000w PA the BIG Woop was a roaring success. Entry was free and all participants were asked to make a charity donation on the way in. After expenses (toilet hire, lighting, generators, etc) Burgerseeds Parties are proud to announce an amount of £132 was raised to help support Berudep projects in Cameroon.
Burgerseeds Parties would like to extend a massive thanks to I H Brown for donating the use of their arctic lorry for the stage, Nixon Hire Perth for donating their tower lights, all the Burgerseeds Parties staff and friends who volunteered on the day, and of course all the bands and DJ’s who played for free.
Bands – Air raiders, Michael Bannister, Cholo, The Touches, Friday First, The Gallaghers.
