Help Mothers in May
FFFF 2nd Anniversary, May 2010
Can you help us raise funds for fistula during May?
1 woman every 2 seconds is injured or disabled in childbirth. That means 1,339,200 pregnant women will be injured during the 31 days in May.
We are challenging you to do something big or small to help us provide free surgery to these women and start them on a journey of physical and emotional healing.
It’s the perfect excuse to get together with the girls and we’ve come up with some ideas to help you on your way:
• Give up chocolate for the month of May and ask for sponsorship!
• Have 10 friends round to the house for coffee and cakes and charge them £10 each.
• Do a 10k or marathon in aid of FFFF.
• Meet your friends for a glass of wine and sell a prize to the highest bidder.
• Hold a quiz night at your local gym/golf club/tennis club.
• Have a jewellery/candle night and ask the company to donate 20% of the proceeds.
• Hold a ‘Wii FIT Hula Hoop Challenge’ with friends and ask them to pay to compete.
In order to encourage support for the campaign we are offering a superb prize of one week’s holiday for 4 people in a cottage on Beaufort Estate, near Inverness, to the person who raises the most money in May. So get your thinking caps on and get fundraising for FFFF!
Please email info@freedomfromfistula.org.uk to let us know about your fundraising endeavours or for further information.
