Campaign Story
Hello,
As you may be aware, Luis Anton Arnau’s (Head of Pre-Sales in BT Hong Kong) wife Maria sadly passed away recently.
A number of people have been enquiring on how to do something for Luis and his family (2 young twins, Martin and Olivia) via some sort of donation or something similar. Luis has been in touch and has intimated that if people do wish to donate, then those donations would go to the hospice where Maria spent her last few weeks being cared for.
The centre where Maria stayed whilst being treated for the cancer belongs to the Hospitaller Order of Saint John of God, one of the world´s biggest non-profit organizations for the care of the sick and needed. They run some 400 hospitals across the world and provide services to more than 2 million people every year.

A worthwhile cause I am sure you will agree:
-If you would like to make a donation to this hospice in Maria’s memory, then I have set up a ‘Go Fund Me’ account which allows donations to be made online and in Hong Kong Dollars. These donations will then be withdrawn by me as fundraiser and then sent onto the hospice via Luis.
-If you wanted to donate cash, I can accept that and donate it to the website on your behalf so you can see it recorded on the website with your name.
I have not sent this to everyone, rather those who I know Luis is friends with. If you know that someone would definitely like to contribute or that I have missed then please feel free to send this to them or let me know if I have missed anyone.
Luis will be back in Hong Kong at the beginning of September and I know this would be a nice way to start his family's next chapter.
Any questions please get in touch. Thank you all.
Kind regards, Ross.
