Red Nose day is on Friday 18th March so if you want to do something funny and in the process raise some money, here are some ideas of how you can help!
Red Nose Day is here to transform the lives of the poor and disadvantaged people in the UK and Africa and provides support in various ways from helping to provide Education to tackling issues such as Malaria, Infant Health, Mental Health and funds various UK Projects - these are just a small selection of causes helped by Red Nose Day.
We are excited to say that there are lots of fundraising events going on in Schools around the
local area. At the Emmanuel Church of England Primary School in
West Hampstead, all staff are giving a donation to wear red clothes to School on Friday and at St Eugene De Mazenod Roman Catholic Primary School, they are selling red noses and both staff and students are giving donations to wear red clothes to school!
If you are looking for something that your workplace can take part in, then how about pay to dress down all day, or if you want to do something yourself... how about getting sponsored to wear your pyjamas all day! For the more creative you could organise a cake sale or make products to sell. You could get sponsored to give up something or do something different for the day or for the week.
For the men... why not get sponsored to wax your legs, or there is always the option to wear a wig for the day! There are so many ways to raise money for this cause. For more ideas or to order a fundraising pack visit their
website.
To give you an idea of what £30 could do to help, this amount could provide 25 children with severe malaria in Uganda access to vital drugs which are needed to help them survive long enough to get them to hospital. If you want to give money direct you can do this on the
Red Nose Day website where you can donate any amount you want to.
We hope you have a fantastic
Red Nose Day, whatever you do!
