How Can YOU Help?
To provide the Chemo Survivor Kits free of charge we will need the support of the public. We aim to raise funds in the following way :
- Fundraising events
- Sponsorship (Individual/Corporate bag sponsorship)
- Donations (See our shopping list!)
WE WILL HOLD A NUMBER OF EVENTS SUCH AS FAYRES, BEAUTY NIGHTS, CUPCAKE SALES, BAG PACKING, RAFFLES AND CONCERTS TO NAME JUST A FEW.
WE WOULD LOVE IT IF PEOPLE WOULD CONSIDER HOLDING EVENTS ON OUR BEHALF ASWELL!
We offer sponsorship opportunities to companies or individuals. Bags cost £15 each so a company or individual can make an individual donation to sponsor a single bag or a set amount.
If you do this and know somebody going through chemo you can specifically ask to sponsor a kit for the person you know. The card which is included in every bag can hold the company or individuals names though this is optional.
Any donations no matter how big or small is most appreciated.
You can make donations via WWW.GOFUNDME.COM/CHEMOKITS
For those interested in making hats, teddies, sock monkeys or cushions please visit out Knitting Patterns Page where patterns will be added regularly for your use - please note there are no guidelines and those offering to kindly support us can use any pattern of their choice. These patterns are simply provided for those who need one. All that we ask is that when making the hats please ensure they are as soft as possible as hair loss and the effects of the chemo makes the skin very sensitive. Sincere thanks x x x
First may I thank everyone for their kind offers in helping provide items such as hats, teddy, sock monkeys & cushions for our Chemo Survivor Kits. Your kindness & support has been overwhelming and I am so grateful to each of you.
