Cash For Kids West raises £13,500 with Abseil Event
A few weeks ago, Big Bang Promotions teamed up with Cash for Kids West Scotland, for a twin-cage abseil event! This was hosted at the Silverdale Shopping Centre in Glasgow, and saw a total of 70 fundraisers, who managed to raise over £13,500 (and counting!).
🤩 Cash for Kids is a grant giving charity, focusing on supporting the most vulnerable children in our communities; the innocent victims of child poverty. They provide grants during each of the key school holidays; February, Easter, Summer, October and Christmas. This ensures children have access to hot, nutritious meals, activities and day trips, as well as being able to make memories to share with their friends when back at school.
📍 Cash for Kids runs UK wide, in partnership with Bauer media. The Scottish regions, such as Clyde 1 Cash for Kids and Forth 1 Cash for Kids donate 100% of the pounds raised back into helping children in the local community.
🏗 The morning of setting up involved our Big Bang team fastening two of our cages together, in preparation for a twin-cage event. This means that fundraisers were able to complete the accomplishment alongside one another, which brings a sense of comradery whilst calming nerves! Additionally, this means that many more participants can be processed, which in turn increases the amounts that can be raised for these fantastic causes!
📑 A quote from Lisa Gray, Charity Executive Cash for Kids - ‘Thank you to the amazing team at Big Bang Promotions for putting on an abseil for our charity – Cash for Kids. The day went great and ran smoothly. The team were highly skilled and kept the participants calm when they were feeling nervous!’
👍 Big Bang Promotions would like to say well done to all the participants who were able to raise much needed funds for this great charity, and thank you to Cash for Kids for asking us to be a part of this event. We hope to see you all next year!
