Packing children's rucksacks for Comfort Cases UK · 29 April 2023

Every year, 38500 new children enter the care system - 1 child every 15 minutes. Often, they are moved under emergency circumstances with a little more than the clothes on their backs. Comfort Cases UK provides children entering the care system with a bag of bespoke belongings to call their own.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

With Sonny's barmitzvah fast approaching, he wanted to raise funds for a cause that is important to him. While he is preparing for a wonderful event with family and friends by his side, he is aware that many children are not so lucky.

On any given day there are over 108,000 children in foster care in the UK, without a permanent home.

Many have little more than the clothes on their back, with an estimated 30,000 moved around the system every year. No child should carry around their life in a bin bag.

Comfort Cases UK have a mission to bring a sense of hope and dignity to these children by giving them an unbranded backpack filled with items centred around their personal needs, and showing them that they are loved and respected.

Any funds Sonny raises will pay for these backpacks:

£20 buys an XL duffel bag to carry their treasured belongings.

£40 buys an entire backpack filled with all their essential items.

Sonny will then devote his time to joining the Comfort Cases UK team in personally packing all the backpacks he has bought.

THE MORE MONEY HE RAISES, THE MORE BAGS HE PACKS, THE MORE CHILDREN HE HELPS.......SO LET'S SEND SONNY PACKING!

Any little helps. However small your donation, every penny is vital, and gratefully received.

Once you donate, JustGiving will send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
