Your generosity makes our work possible. Every single donation counts.
At no cost to you, you can raise funds for Bright Sparks when you shop online using the Easyfundraising site or app.
It costs just £15 a month to cover the cost of one child’s place at Bright Sparks (or £12 plus Gift Aid). This is an amazing gift to the school. Sponsors who commit to sponsoring a child for a period are not linked to individual children. Instead, your sponsorship is used to benefit the whole school.
Each year, you can see one or two children’s stories featured on our blog along with other updates about the school. To set up your sponsorship, go to Justgiving and select the option to make a regular donation. You can cancel at any time. Please give permission on the Justgiving site to receive updates so we can get back to you. Then join our mailing list to get updates about the school.
Every regular donation, whether its £5 or £50 a month, makes a huge difference. It helps keep essential funds flowing to the school. It buys pens, exercise books, salaries and broadband. It basically keeps the whole place running.
Go to Justgiving and select monthly to set up your regular donation. You can cancel at any time. Please give permission to receive updates so we can get back to you. Then join our mailing list to receive updates about the school.
Help us by fundraising in your own personal way. In the past, people have walked long distances, shaved their head (!) or sold home-made goodies like sloe gin or chilli jam. Mmm.
You can either collect funds (eg, selling something) and add the money to our Justgiving page. Or you can set up a separate Justgiving page, by selecting FUNDRAISE FOR US then link it to your own sponsorship or event. If you’d like help with this, please contact us.
We’d love to know about your fundraising so please PLEASE email us and tell us what you are doing. Join our mailing list to get updates about the school.
Opportunities to sponsor a named student, arise from time to time. Currently, these are most likely to be ex-Bright Sparks students who have left secondary school and need support with tutoring or course fees for tertiary education. Mostly, sponsors can be in direct communication with their student at this stage.
If you are interested in supporting a young person in their university or college years, please contact us.
Join our mailing list here so you know about our latest campaign. There may be an urgent appeal or a search for sponsors, or something else entirely. Help Bright Sparks by donating, or by sharing the link with other people who might be interested. Use email, FB, twitter or even word of mouth!
If you’d like to be more involved or have a suggestion to make, please do contact us.
