The six units of this My Life programme are each based on a case study representative
of the real work The Children's Society is involved in on a daily basis, to ensure
that as many children as possible have the childhood they deserve.
We need your help to continue to support children like those featured in each of
the units. Children like Kesia, who as a young carer faces challenges that children
shouldn't have to deal with alone, or Andrew who could have faced a life in isolation
due to communication difficulties resulting from his severe disability.
By supporting The Children's Society through fundraising you will make all the difference
in ensuring we can continue to be there for children like Kesia and Andrew.
You can do whatever works best for your school or class to raise these life-changing
funds, but we can offer a free and simple fundraising pack that won't place any
extra strain on your time or resources. Just pick whatever cause featured in My
Life that you wish to focus your fundraising on and we'll supply you with everything
you need to make a big difference.
£30 pays for two disabled children to visit the seaside in a specially equipped vehicle.
£60 gives a group of young carers like Kesia the chance to get out of the
home for an evening to go bowling.
£60 pays for the cost of three massage sessions to help ease the pain of a physically disabled child.
£100 would fund work with a child like Kesia coping with the trauma of looking
after parents who abuse drugs or alcohol.
