Fundraising - Get Involved!
At Little Thetford Acorns, sessional fees only cover day-to-day running costs.
That means we need the Fundraising team to raise the extra money we need throughout the year to pay for things like:
-
Replacing toys and games
-
Arts and crafts resources
-
Subsidising school trips
-
Garden equipment
As a not-for-profit charity, all money raised goes straight back into the setting to be used for things that will be enjoyed by all the children.
How you can help:
-
Join the Fundraising Team – we always need new members and love new ideas so contact us via email or our Facebook page if you want to get involved!
-
Support our events – come along to our events, enter those colouring competitions, buy those Christmas cards/puddings/tea towels/craft packs/raffle tickets or donate your time – every little bit helps!
-
