Cash Genie, the short term loan lender, is pleased to announce that its commitment to Starlight Children’s Foundation is continuing to strengthen with Cash Genie donating a further £1,124 to the charity on 6th January 2010.
Starlight Children’s Foundation is a charity that uses all of the generous donations they receive to brighten the lives of seriously and terminally ill children by granting them their dream wishes and providing entertainment to help take their minds off the pain and upset of their illness.
Just one of the many children that have had their dreams realised by the input of Starlight Children’s Foundation is five-year old Ryan who was diagnosed with a brain tumour when just three years old. Ryan’s dream was to meet Santa Claus. With Starlight’s help Ryan and his family spent three days on holiday in Lapland where they were given the opportunity to sledge in the Winter wonderland; feed carrots to Santa’s reindeer and at the end of the holiday meet Santa, much to the delight of young Ryan.
Cash Genie offers its customers the chance to donate to this amazing charity. Every time an applicant is successful with their loan application they are asked if they wish to donate 50pence to the charity, which Cash Genie will then match with another 50p, further increasing the donation and giving more children like Ryan the chance to have their dreams realised.
