Kirsty's Appeal web site launched

Thursday, 28 November 2002

TT360 are proud to have been involved in the creation of the Kirsty's appeal web site in aid of the Francis House Hospice for terminally ill children. Relying on charitable donations for the vast majority of their funding, Francis House is aiming to raise at least £5 million to provide a safety net and underpin the future of the trust, easing the burden of day to day fundraising.

Kirsty Howard is the most recognised patient at Francis House and was unfortunately born with her heart back to front. After having endured nine cardiac operations, she still has abnormal blood vessels developing on her lung which severely restrict her day to day living. Kirsty showed immense courage earlier this year when she was watched by millions as she passed the Commonwealth Games baton to the Queen, and is constantly involved in fund raising for the hospice.

By providing consultancy services for online payments and secure hosting as well as helping to coordinate external resources, TT360 have enabled donations to be made directly on the web site, increasing the potential scope of donations to the appeal. The website contains information about Kirsty and Francis house as well as different ways of helping the trust and getting involved.
