WHAT YOU CAN DODONATEEVENTSJOBS

 

Welcome to Skip a Treat!

Skip a Treat Armbands now available

Over 100 million children around the world get no basic education at all. It's a shocking statistic, even more so when you consider that education is absolutely fundamental to tackling poverty.

This is why we're asking you to skip a treat and donate the money you would normally spend to Save the Children - you may be surprised just how far your money goes!

What would you go without to give a child the chance of a better future?

A serve of chips? A chocolate bar? A visit to the movies?

Not much is it?

You may not realise it, but for less than the price of a packet of biscuits you could buy a textbook for a child in Vietnam. While the cost of a bunch of flowers could cover a teacher's salary in Sri Lanka for an entire month.
