Congratulations Amelia
Recently, Amelia (Yr 5) participated in a kids for cancer fundraiser. Below is a speech Amelia has written about her experience along with the link to her fundraising page.
Amelia's Fundraiser- Kids with cancer
Good morning, St Pauls, my name is Amelia. I would like to talk to you about a fundraising process I am doing for charity. The two charities that I am supporting are Wigs for Kids and Kids with cancer foundation. The wigs for kids foundation supports children who are being treated for cancer by giving them wigs which are made of real hair, to help those kids who have lost their hair because of their treatment. They accept donations of real hair which are made into those wigs.
The kids with cancer foundation is a charity that has supported nearly 2,500 families who have children who are being treated for cancer, raised $23 million dollars for hospitals and funded 186 medical jobs.
On September the 6th, I am going to be cutting off most of my hair. I am going to donate my hair to the wigs for kids as I would like to do something nice for someone who is struggling through their treatment. I hope that it makes them feel a little happier.
I am also doing this in the hope that I can raise some money from cutting my hair to donate to the kids with cancer foundation so that they can buy better equipment and help support families that are in financial situations due to their children receiving treatment .
I am grateful for being able to talk to you and would ask that if you would like to donate some money to my fundraising, please come and see me as I have a donation webpage.
Thank you
