The charity page has been updated so that it will take you directly to the school's icare link. In the special instructions, please say that your donation is on behalf of Jennifer McKay. For those in Australia, or if you are having problems using the link, please transfer to Adrienne's account below and reference it as for Jenny. We will then arrange for a bulk transfer to be sent through to the school. Or if you are having trouble accessing the link, please email Adrienne and we will get the link directly to you.
Jenny loved the garden, a place that is full of colour. We would like to pass this on to the dress code and ask that you wear something that is bright and cheerful in celebration of life. If you are more comfortable with sombre colours, that is also okay. Whatever you decide is no problem at all.
As part of the service, we will be lighting a candle in Jenny's memory, and welcome those attending via livestream, to have a candle with you to light at the same time.
If you are attending in person, you are welcome to join for afternoon tea after the service concludes. Details will be provided at the service.
Instead of sending flowers or other tributes, we believe Jenny would prefer that your contributions be put to good use. We have chosen the Nasra School in Karachi, Pakistan, as we believe this will continue to support Jenny’s quest to empower the younger generations through access to education.
