Hello,

I’m Tania, the chairwoman of the Friends of St.George’s. We are new to JustGiving but hope to become a popular fundraising cause.

I thought it would be good if our lovely community gives the page a great start. So, to aid the objective, I’m challenging myself to do the RunThrough half marathon in Battersea Park on 8th of March, International Women’s Day. I have only run such a long distance once before. I would like to encourage everyone to show their support by way of donating and promoting the campaign among your family, friends and colleagues. You can also join the race and we can convert the page to a team fundraising effort.

All the funds raised for the Friends will be donated to the school towards long-lasting equipment and resources, as well as exciting school trips and educational visits.

Some of those projects the Friends have invested towards recently include:

- Multi-sports pitch for lower playground;

- Amphitheatre renovation to create exciting outdoor learning space;

- Graffiti art project to liven up the area outside the library;

- Anti-bullying drama workshop for all year groups;

- Creation of a welcoming quiet space.

The Friends of St.George’s are eternally grateful to you for the continuous support!
