#Gifts4Kids3 - Fundraising for Basildon Hospital!
Donation protected
This is our third edition of our campaign "CHRISTMAS GIFTS FOR THE KIDS". - GIFTS4KIDS3!
During our last fundraiser in 2019, we managed to raise over £2100 to purchase gifts for over 50 children hospitalised at Basildon Hospital and support Polly Parrot Children's Appeal - Basildon and Thurrock Hospitals Charity. We challenged ourselves to play board games NON-STOP for 24hours.
This year we set the bar a little higher - our goal is to rise £2500.. but how are we going to do this?
Northreach Pack is taking on a challenge to complete, as a collective, 1962 miles on stationery bikes - the exact distance from LapLand, Finland all the way down to Basildon Hospital! Our aim is to finish this route in 30 days.
START: 15th November
FINISH: 15th December (LAST DAY LIVE STREAMING!)
We estimated that each of the Pack member needs to complete approx. 5-6 miles a day, leaving the longest bit of the distance on the last day of campaign as the "final push", which we're going to do fancy Christmas dress up for and live stream it.
We will need your donations to purchase gifts for over 50 children;
There are two wards - wagtail and puffin, each have 18 bed bays, so a total of 36. There is also the neo-natal intensive care unit which has 15 cots. That brings us to a total of 51 beds based on full capacity.
We will deliver the gifts to Basildon Hospital by 22nd December.
Any funds raised above our goal will be donated to the charity to help cover the costs of anything else that needs a financial support - cover the running costs of Polly's Pad or help to invest in new equipment.
PLEASE HELP US OUT, SPREAD THE WORD, DONATE AND LET'S MAKE IT HAPPEN!
