“I cannot help my children with homework and school is very different here [to Somalia]. I missed so much of my school because of the war in my country – we need this for our children because we can’t speak English.” Feedback from a Somali mum
We’re counting down the days till the launch of this summer’s Big Give on 23rd June!
Last summer, we gave over 400 local refugee children the chance to take part in trips and activities as part of our Love to Learn programme. For some children, this was the first time they had ever left Battersea, or seen the sea.
This was only possible thanks to your generous donations.
This year, we’re asking for your help again. Help us to save summer 2020!
We’re raring to go with this summer’s Love to Learn programme and have tons of ideas to make sure that everyone is safe and socially distanced.
We’ll provide art, baking and activity packs for workshops to be run virtually or in the open air. And we’ll organise several trips to the park and family days out.
With just a couple of clicks, you can help us reach our target of £12,000. AND with all donations automatically doubled between 23-30 June, your contribution will make twice the impact.
STAY TUNED! And… Thank You in advance!
From 23rd June, 12pm you’ll be able to make your donation here and see it doubled: https://donate.thebiggive.org.uk/campaign/a051r00001WVC1cAAH
