How you can help us

There are lots of ways that your school can help support the work we do, and every penny raised will make a real difference to the lives of hundreds of children every year.

Whether your school is brand new to our charity, or if you’ve supported us before, choosing us as your Charity of the Year means a full year of fundraising, campaigning and learning; together we can help local families with seriously ill children and, at the same time, educate pupils to help bust myths and open up the dialogue around childhood cancer in an age-appropriate way.

Whether it’s a cake sale, your Christmas jumper day or our infamous Smarties tube challenge – where pupils ask their friends and family to help them fill up a Smarties tube with 20p or £1 coins – we have tonnes of fundraising ideas perfect for classmates to get involved with.

Pyjama days are a great way to have loads or fun and support Momentum.  We have lots of new resources (posters, parent communications, fundraising resources) available to help you set up the day here

How we can help you

You’ll get a dedicated account manager who will be on hand to help bring our charity to life in your school. They’ll do whatever they can to inspire you and will be there to support your fundraising every step of the way.

We have lots of helpful resources too:

If you’d like us to send you a schools fundraising pack, please email maria@momentumcharity.org

Bring your event to life with balloons, posters and collection tins. We can even arrange for our mascot Mo the Owl to pay you a visit.

We have some fantastic classroom resources we can share with you, and we’re also more than happy to come and talk at your school assembly.
