FUNDRAISING FOR US
The efforts of donors like you, fundraising for us worldwide, mean we can protect children and build peace. Every sum raised can transform the life of a child, from helping them with their schooling to arranging eye operations and medical aid.
The fundraising team are on hand to help make your fundraising a success. We can provide you with logos, advertising tips and collection tins should you need them. For more information, contact us
