These bright young fundraisers have been working hard to support The CAIRN Trust’s work and help change the lives of some of the world's poorest children in Nepal. Read about their great efforts!
Scarlet Fox decided that when her class gave her the collection money for her 6th birthday present, she would be very kind and give it to charity. Her charity at school was The CAIRN Trust and she gave her whole £120 to help children in Nepal.
That means that Scarlet has helped to send two children to school with all their uniform, books, bags and shoes for a year. Super Scarlet!
Seven year old Calypso Carter, decided that she would like to do something for charity at her grandparents garden open day. As her grandparents had so many pretty flowers, she picked and pressed the flowers from their garden. Calypso then turned them into stunning bookmarks that she sold for £1.00 each at the garden open day in aid of The CAIRN Trust. Her bookmarks were a roaring success.
Through her great efforts Calypso raised an amazing £25 to help children in Nepal. That means that Calypso has helped at least two children get food of rice and lentils for a month on the Emergency support programme. Creative Calypso!
We didn’t have many sunny days this summer but Beatrice Kennedy managed to make the most of one of those rare sunny days. Beatrice, aged 10 years, made her own special lemonade and set up a lemonade stall at the end of her street. She made a colourful poster which attracted local passers by. Her hard work on a hot sunny day raised an amazing £2.50. That means that Beatrice has helped to buy a child’s school bag as part of the CAIRN Educational Awards. Brilliant Beatrice!
One cold January morning, all the children from Thomas’s Clapham collected coins and ran a coin race. Just over 6,000 coins were stretched across the school playground with one cm/ml being the distance from London to Nepal. The children managed to raise a staggering £994.65.
Through their efforts, at least sixteen children could start going to school with their uniform, shoes, bags, books, pencils through the CAIRN Educational Awards. Clever Clapham!
Thanks to all of our young supporters who have raised money to help children in Nepal go to school and have food and a home.
