The Hope Foundation have announced that Amanda Neri will be performing at the HOPE Christmas Concert this December 10th, at the luxurious Fota Island Resort hotel. At this exclusive event, proudly sponsored by Ronan Daly Jermyn, guests will be welcomed with a mulled wine reception and seasonal bites, before relaxing into an evening full of great entertainment.
Amanda will be supported by soprano Laura Yanez, violinist Brian Murphy, The Castlelyons Gospel Choir, The Cork East Male Voice Choir and Nadya Deeny. There will also be some fantastic spot prizes such as an exquisite Daniel Wellington watch donated by Keanes Jewellers, and Wedgewood Frames donated by The Kilkenny Shop.
HOPE founder Maureen Forrest is delighted to announce and welcome Amanda Neri as an official HOPE Ambassador. On her new role Amanda commented:
“The individual stories I’ve heard are shocking, yet it is so inspiring to see how HOPE can lift a child out of darkness and give them what they need to thrive – protection, security and a future”.
Amanda and HOPE are working on some exciting plans for 2016, which HOPE are very excited about.
Speaking in advance of the event, HOPE founder and Honorary Director, Maureen Forrest said
“We are looking forward to celebrating 16 years of HOPE with our guests. Looking ahead our goal is to reach even more children on the streets of Kolkata. But we can only do that with help. It is through people’s continued support and generosity that we can all make a difference in a child’s life.”
