JP Morgan Investment Banking Fundraising Day - Tuesday 5 December

JP Morgan is proud to be a supporter of Kids and its valuable work with disabled children, young people and their families.  To show its support, JP Morgan’s Investment Banking Division will be hosting a special fundraising day on Tuesday 5 December to raise money for Kids, its projects and services.

On this page you will given the opportunity to purchase a gift which will make a huge difference to the life of a disabled child or young person – anything from a football for a Kids playground, a place on a sign language course or a trip to the seaside. 

Every time a gift is purchased we will place a decoration on our special Kids Christmas Tree.  By the end of the day we want to see the tree covered in decorations and to have reached our fundraising target of £25,000! Through JPMorgan's Team Engagement Programme and the Senior Management Team of IBC we hope to increase this figure to a fantastic £75,000.  

You can show your support by purchasing a gift from the shopping list below and help Kids make a difference to a disabled child’s life. Please donate generously.
