Hi,

This Fundraiser is to Make Children, Women, Men Smile, Feel Loved, Acknowledged on Christmas Day.

It’s to give gifts, Christmas Trees and food for those Without! Help me share and Sprinkle some Christmas Spirit & Magic to those who could do with abit of FeelGood on the 25th.

My Name is Jacob. I am the owner of Garden Of Healing Dispensary AKA The GOHD, Or, www.thegohd.com, I have recently started a mental health Page and trying to build a community around that called UnMasking ADHD - ADvanseHD.

After a late diagnosis this year at 40 and suffering with lots of muskuloskeletal problems over the last couple of years it has taught me alot about life, Myself, my Past and my conditions.

I was sat thinking about my own predicament in how i Feel about the celebration of Christmas this year and it made me realise. No matter how bad I may feel about things right now, there is always someone else more worse off.

I have a roof, I have heating, the ability to eat and some people to share that day with.

Some people cant afford food, shelter, a Christmas Tree, a Present, and some may not even get a thin piece of foldeable cardboard that says I love you.

Some families wont have a TREE to sit around and look at whilst their kids eat their Christmas meal.

Some Children wont even recieve a single present and not neccessarily because they arent loved, not even because their parents dont work but because they are a family in lack, wages down, prises just continue to keep rising, some people have to make the choice to either eat, put the heating on or have presents to open on the 25th.

Neccessity , safety and practicality have to come first for some before the glistening hype of this pressured celebratory day.

Some people dont even have a home, a relative, a friend, a support network and are left by the wigh side, left on the streets to fend for themselves, whether thats their fault, the governments, let down by the very systems that are meant to keep us safe and symbolize civilization, community, humanity and give us purpose and support.

Due to the ever growing numbers of homelessness increasing over the last 12 to 24 months some homeless people wont even get served a meal in a homeless soup kitchen place.

Some people say Homelessness is their own fault, sometimes that is correct, sometimes its habhorently wrong!

Either way, I, You, WE are not here to Judge. Why someone is homeless and why a parent cant afford a present and Why a Child doesnt recieve on this Christmas isnt for us to judge, but it is for us to INTERVEIN.

And we can!

The purpose of this GO FUND Me Page is to do our little bit.

In 2022 and 2023 I donated a few presents to the 'Kids without Presents' Initiative ran by the Radio Station (Metro I think it was).

I also went out on the streets and gave out 'Thermal Sleeping bags", Hot Coffees & Sandwiches.

Its Christmas, its the one time of YEAR, we should all just LOVE, not judge, Spread Prosperity and JOY and make our fellow Men, Women & Children feel like they matter and do what little we can to at least bring some Joy, Happiness, Sparkle & Christmas Spirit to their day!

Well thats what I want to do. I will take care of everything Logistically, I will go DO & Sort Everything, I just need your Empathy, Kindness and donation.

They say the greatest ability of being human is Empathy, being able to stand in the shoes and Mind of another and experience Life from their point of View. Do that for one moment today, Do that from the words you have just read.

Think about your Christmas and what it would be like to be in major Lack? Perhaps your lacking yourself....But could it be worse?

Help me make this happen.

I need to raise £350 in total.

This will get me;

Actually if we are going to do this, I think we should adjust and do 20 meals at the Soup Kitchen place that makes Proper Hot Comforting Christmas Dinners for them and lets do 20 Presents and make 20 kids Christmas day... Why Not, I think we can.

For people unsure about Donating, I can assure you this will go to the causes I have said above, never used GO FUND ME before but ill take pictures, make videos and keep you all updated.

So total needed is

So that actually comes to £450 but whatever we raise, we ill help someone, we will make someone day, we will feed someone, we will make someone smile, we will make a child feel greatful and loved.

If thats not what Christmas is about, What are we even celebrating it for?

Dont be like the Grinch LOL Be more like Jesus Lol (just a jokey joke!)

Please join, realistically we only have 12 days to do this.

HAHA It really is the 12 Days of Christmas for these People, C'Mon, show your support, show some LOVE.

Its £10 for 45 people, £1 from 450 people or somewhere in between.

Ill post this out on all pages I am able to but i really need to make sure all this is done, accounted for, processed, paid out, presents bought, meals bought, cards and street stuff done, trees delivered, everything by Max, 23rd December, 22nd would be better.

I thank you for your patienc enad time reading this, i bid you all a very MERRY Christmas and a very Prosperous New year....

If this goes well maybe we could do it again next year with a bit more time and scope.

Thank you
