Story
I'm raising £750 for my non-profit Birthday Stars Project to cover party entertainer costs and volunteer expenses for 3 months.
This will be for February, March and April whilst we await/ apply for grant applications.
We host a party once a month on site at a temporary accommodation centre in Fallowfield and families from two other centres are invited too.
These families are going through traumatic and stressful times and we love to alleviate a bit of pressure from parents/ carers by organising a free party for all children from the three centres and bringing Birthday cake donations.
For transparency, our volunteer party hosts give 4 hours per party and we aim to offer £10 for their travel expenses.
Our volunteer face painters receive a little more to cover their travel expenses but also to top up face paints and materials. We aim to pay the volunteer face painter £20 per party.
This project started in 2017 when I won initial funding. It is my passion and way to give back after receiving support by Women's Aid and refuge accommodation myself.
Please donate what you can and share our campaign with friends.
THANK YOU 💖
