Cracker appeal
Christmas cracker packs containing posters, stories and fundraising ideas are being sent to schools to encourage them to organise a special Christmas cracker day and individual fundraising events. The school will then use money raised to buy an item, such as a goat for a family in one of the world’s poorest countries, from the charity’s alternative Christmas gift catalogue. Other catalogue ideas include paying pound;25 for a child to be immunised against diseases. The school will receive a certificate recording their achievement.
