Working with schools

We love getting children and young people involved in the work we do. Partnering with schools is a great way to teach them about non-academic concepts such as community, recycling and charity. Here’s some of the ways that schools and pupils can get involved:

• Organise a donation event by collecting toiletries, clothing and coats.
• See our School Days campaign for how you can support local children with school essentials.
• Hold a fundraiser such as a cake sale, quiz night or sponsored event.
• Organise a collection for items such as coats, school uniform, stationery or toiletries. Please email us if you would like to organise something. 
• Encourage everyone to wear stripes and make a donation or fundraise for our Stripes4Stripey event in June.
• Support our annual Mother’s Day campaign ‘A Gift for Mum’, where we organise donations of pampering products to ensure no Mum goes without.
• Get a team together and join Team Stork for Run Reigate.

If your school would like to work with us or choose us to be your chosen charity, we’d love to hear from you. Our mascot Stripey, along with our Partnerships Manager, loves to visit school assemblies or classes and talk about the work we do.
