Standing with Ukraine Day - Update from the Charity Comittee
16 Mar 2022
Dear Fountains family,
Our charity committee has decided to help support a much bigger cause. We will be raising money for the Ukraine, a country who is going through very tough times.
We will be hosting a STAND WITH UKRAINE DAY! Where we will be setting up a cake stall, children will be able to wear non-school uniform (ideally yellow and blue but it is optional) and for our biggest fund raiser we are organising a sponsored silence. The sponsorship forms are being sent home tonight in your child’s bag.
If you would like your child to take part they will need to come to school in non-school uniform (suggestion of minimum £1 donation). If your child would like to purchase a cake they will need 50p, the bake sale will be held at first break instead of after school so those who go on the bus can enjoy a cake as well. We need donations of cakes for our cake stall.
Our STAND WITH UKRAINE DAY will be held on the Wednesday 23rd of March. If you would like to donate a cake we would be most grateful.
Thank you
Yours sincerely,
The Fountains Charity Committee
On Wednesday the 23rd March, the charity committee are organising a Standing with Ukraine Day.
This will be a day of fund-raising activities to help the people who are suffering because of the Russian invasion.
The committee feel very strongly that they would like to support the Ukrainian people during this time of crisis. Advice from charities such as DEC, Oxfam and Unicef is to pledge money rather than collections of clothes and food. The money raised can then be used to purchase, food water and shelter for those who have been forced to leave their homes .
The Committee will send further details of activities as they are formalised.
