Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving Page!!
We are planning, organising, promoting and funding a Winter Festival on the 10th of December. The aim of our event is to raise money for the Residential Volunteer programme at Toynbee Hall, while engaging with the local community and promoting the services offered at Toynbee. We need your help with the funding of this event to see that it runs as smoothly as possible. We are looking to raise around £500 pounds for this, and anything else will be put into the Residential Volunteer Programme.
Toynbee Hall is an inspiring organisation that offers many services to the local community but also to London more widely. As Residential Volunteers we have the unique position of living at Toynbee Hall for a year and volunteering for many of these projects. We are following in the footsteps of past volunteers, including Clement Attlee and William Beveridge and in this position we are encouraged to 'learn as much as to teach; to receive as much as to give'.
The festival is going to be a day of music, workshops, food, gifts and winter fun. It will be a huge task for us as we have just under 6 weeks to organise this event while volunteering, working, interning, studying for degrees and giving legal advice. This is why we need sponsorship from friends, family and any interested parties.
Please help us celebrate this hyper diverse community at winter in style, while raising money for the continuation of the Residential Volunteer programme.
