Senior Bikers raise 1000 Euros for Gaivota Home for teenagers

Dr Ricardo Xufre gave a talk about the Gaivota HomeThe annual Christmas Lunch at the Fatacil Restaurant in Lagoa, plus a Bring and Buy Sale at Faro Moto Club, and other donations for cakes and mince pies made by Dee Shirley, and Paté made by John Tavener resulted in a fantastic total of €1000 being presented to Dr Ricardo Xufre, manager of the Gaivota home for teenagers in Albufiera.

ASB Organiser, David Shirley, presents a donation of €1000 to Dr Ricardo, manager of the Gaivota Home for teenagers Dr Ricardo attended the lunch and gave a talk on how the home operates and thanked the ASB members for their generosity and support over the last 6 years.

Kiss FM DJ Sir Owen Gee auctioned some bottles of malt whiskey, and the home-made Christmas Cake prize was won by Nev March, who immediately passed it to Sir Owen to auction to raise more funds!

Donations over the past year have included many items including clothes and four laptop computers. A big thank you to all who gave so generously to this great cause. Too many to mention all, but thanks for the help from Carvoeiro Clube de Tenis, and Mandy and Paulo.

Happy Christmas to all ASB members and looking forward to more enjoyable safe riding in 2016.
