This February I am taking part in February on the Floor. Our school currently sponsor a child through Stand by Me, and along with some other teachers, we are aiming to raise some money by having a few nights of uncomfortable sleep.
There are families around the world who spend every night sleeping on the floor, children who wake up hungry with their parents unable to provide breakfast and kids in tattered uniforms without school resources and so I'm taking on the February on the Floor challenge so that we can make a small difference to their lives.
We would love you to sponsor us and any donation will be truly appreciated.
Thank you
James, Roz and Jonny (Orangefield Primary)
Stand by Me rescues kids from extreme circumstances, then provides the care, love and attention they need to thrive. We care for over 3,800 kids across the world, from Myanmar to Colombia to Ethiopia. No two are the same, some are orphaned, some abandoned, some abused or living in extreme poverty, so we take care to meet each of their individual needs from food and healthcare, to loving parents and quality education, enabling them to reach their potential, stand on their own two feet and become who they were created to be.
February on the Floor is a fundraising event designed to make a significant difference to the lives of our amazing Stand by Me children. We ask people to sleep on the floor for a weekend of their choice in February and raise money to help provide families with uniforms, school bags, breakfast and beds to enable them to pursue their dreams.
