How Schools Can Help

Fundraising  - Get your school involved and have fun!

• 'Mufti' or 'dress down' days – or why not have a non-uniform day with a difference and ask pupils to wear particular colours or fancy dress?

• Collections at school plays and concerts

• Sponsored events. How about a sponsored read (the number of books read, the number of pages of a difficult book or the time spent reading in silence) or a sponsored swim or sponsored sunflower growing? We can provide sponsor forms and literature about the Campaign to assist with your fundraising events. Please contact us to discuss your plans.

For  secondary schools - There are a variety of resources available from Giving Nation, designed to enable secondary schools to support their favourite charities. Giving Nation is the youth project of the Giving Campaign – an independent, national campaign supported by the voluntary sector and the Government. Pupils' achievements can be recognised through entering the Giving Nation Awards. For further details visit www.g-nation.co.uk
