Throughout December we ran another online advent calendar of offers, raffles, lucky dips and ‘blind’ auctions – many to raise vital funds for our 2024 charity, Actors’ Benevolent Fund. We’re still finalising the figures, but it looks like you’ve already exceeded last year’s charity fundraising total – well into four figures! We’ll publish the final figure in FAB Express 106 in the spring.
Thanks so much to our generous donors and everyone who bought raffle tickets, charity items or bid in the auctions!
We’ll start mailing the various prizes and auction lots next week.
Remember that we still have a range of items available in return for a donation to our charity. As a reminder, here’s a reminder of what was in our Advent Calendar:
