A big THANK YOU to Grill’d in Mount Lawley who donated $300 to Radio Lollipop and thanks to everyone who ate at Grill’d and chose Radio Lollipop as their preferred charity.

Grill’d currently run a community donation program, whereby every month they donate $500 to the local community. The $500 is split among three local groups and they have come up with a very clever way to do this involving the community. Three jars are set up in their restaurant representing each chosen charity. Every time a customer buys a burger they are given a token. The customer then decides who they’d like Grill’d to support by choosing which jar to put their token in.

Last month Radio Lollipop received the greatest number of tokens. We are very grateful for the donation of $300 from Grill’d and thank the community for their ongoing support.

Radio Lollipop Edinburgh is delighted to have received £1070.71 from 99 Hanover Street.  The funds were raised by the bar staff asking for donations from their customers at their recent ‘Jazzie B’ event held on 31^st March 2013.

The Radio Lollipop volunteers collected their big cheque from the 99 Hanover Street staff and were also grateful to be able to use the venue for their team building treasure hunt!

Edinburgh’s first official volunteer event for 2013 commenced at our supporter’s venue 99 Hanover Street before taking teams out and about the streets of Edinburgh. Winning the GPS treasure hunt, donated by Wildgoose Scotland and hosted by supporter Martin Lawson from Ascent NLP were the Oneders, even after the steward’s enquiry! Thanks also go to young Matthew, helping with plane traffic controlling!
