Official fundraiser for Cher Maximen's Funeral and daughter

UPDATE 26/10/24:

A message from Eboney Maximen: Thanks again to everyone for their generous donations. As Cher's funeral was separately financed by family, 100% of the money raised will now be going into a trust for Cher's daughter. I am currently liaising with the relevant authorities to have this set up and will share on the page once this is complete.

UPDATE FROM THE ORGANISER:

Thank you all for your generous donations and for spreading the word about this fundraiser. It's incredible to see how much has been raised so far, and such a heartening reminder of the strength of community.

I wanted to provide some further context on the page as I understand how important it is for donors to feel confident and for the origins of this fundraiser to be clear.

I am a family friend through Cher’s mother, Eboney Maximen, who is listed on this page as the beneficiary. All funds will go to her directly to be managed and she will be liaising with wider family, as well as publishing information on how/where funds have been administered between Cher’s funeral and a trust for her daughter.

Thank you for your continued support.

We are reaching out on behalf of the family of Cher Maximen, a vibrant 32-year-old mother tragically taken from us during an attack at Notting Hill Carnival. Cher was enjoying a joyful day out with her beloved three-year-old daughter when her life was cut short in an act of senseless violence.

In light of this heartbreaking loss, we have created this GoFundMe page to provide funds towards Cher's funeral as well as essential financial and therapeutic support for Cher’s daughter, who now faces a future without her mother. This little girl deserves all the love and care we can offer during this incredibly difficult time.

Cher was not just a mother; she was a shining light in her community, known for her warmth and kindness. Her smile brought joy to many, and her legacy will live on through her daughter. Together, we can help ensure that this young girl has the resources she needs to grow up surrounded by love, support, and opportunities.

Your generosity can make a profound difference in her life. Every donation, no matter the size, will go towards creating a secure and nurturing environment for her. We promise to be transparent about how the funds are used, and we deeply appreciate any support you can provide.

Thank you for standing with us during this tragedy. Let’s come together to honor Cher’s memory and provide a brighter future for her daughter.

We ask for your continued commitment to peace and the protection of vital community spaces.
