SCHOOLS

Concern Worldwide is once again asking schools to come on board and take part in Fast Friends this December 1st. You can choose to do something really fun, that will make a real difference to the lives of thousands of people living in extreme poverty.

Last year thousands of students helped raise over £135,000 from Fast Friends.  This year we desperately need your help again - every five seconds a child dies from hunger – the need is now – what would you do for a friend?

Everything you need to participate in fastfriends 2007 is right here.  Whether you are a primary or secondary schools you will get lots of fundraising ideas, hints and materials specially created for your Fast Friends appeal.
