First Give are a National Charity that works with supporters and partner schools to inspire young people to make a positive change in society. Together, they have empowered over 160,000 young people to make a difference to thousands of charities across England and Wales.
Marriots School in Stevenage recently held a First Give competition for the children to present their understanding of a chosen charity. Class 8A , Brianna, Gabriella, Lerya, Jamie & Maria under the leadership of their teacher Alice Sweeney chose For Baby’s Sake as their charity to represent.
The children met with Steve Gibbs, For Baby’s Sake Senior Practitioner and created their own presentation for the final in front of five independent judges. Prior to this they had researched the charity , held an event in school which raised over £30 and gave an amazing verbal and PowerPoint presentation to the judges. So much so they won first prize and £1000 for the For Baby’s Sake programme.
Steve from For Baby’s Sake visited the children after the event and congratulated them on their success and thanked them for the grateful donation of the £1000.
