The Ken-Friends Charity Raffle...
Your chance to do a good deed in a naughty world...


And the winner is...

In order to assure absolute transparency (no hanging chads here!) Kenneth Branagh's amiable assistant, Tamar Thomas, chose the winning ticket number from her office 3,000 miles from the the numbers collected by the indefatigable (and uber-fundraiser) Jude Tessel:

"Let's go with 218 - translated to 21st August - screening date for As You Like It!"
And the lucky winner is Laura Radde....Congratulations Laura!

Many, many thanks to all who purchased tickets and helped raise $300 US for charity!. Look for an update on the charity donations here at the end of the year.


The Ken-Friends are raffling a copy of the 62 page Papworth Hospital Charity Celebrity Cookery Book (from Cambridgeshire, England 2006) that includes Kenneth Branagh's Spicy Bean Curd Salad recipe in the Vegetarian Main Meals section. KB kindly inscribed and signed his page in the cookbook for this raffle.

Other celebrities who have contributed recipes include Stephen Fry, Joanna Lumley, Gordon Ramsey, Delia Smith, Carol Vorderman, Sian Phillips, Sir Terry Wogan, Martin Shaw, Baroness Margaret Thatcher and Bryn Terfel.

 
Proceeds from the ticket sale will be donated to a charity supported by Kenneth Branagh.

In the past 9 years Ken-Friends have donated nearly $45,000 to Kenneth Branagh's charities.
