Exeter Chiefs rugby ball & Plymouth City football
Newton Abbot, Devon, United Kingdom
Aim
We're running this prize draw to raise money for our Essential Grants programme which helps local vulnerable children and their families.
The Prize
We have a signed Exeter Chiefs rugby ball and a signed Plymouth Argyle football kindly donated by both clubs to help raise much needed funds for our small children's charity.
The Cause
This is our first prize draw and we hope that the generosity of both Exeter Chiefs and Plymouth Argyle will help raise lots of money.
The Catholic Children's Society (Plymouth) helps families of all faiths and none living in Devon, Cornwall and parts of Dorset who are in financial need. Through our Essential Grants programme, we purchase the basic essentials of life for families really struggling for example, children's beds/cots and mattresses, school uniform including shoes, newborn baby equipment and white goods such as cookers, fridge/freezers and washing machines.
In 2021, we received a record number of requests for our financial help through our Essential Grants programme, as more and more families are struggling to pay all the bills. And in the first six months of this year, we have already received far more requests for our help than we have in previous years. Unfortunately, we have had to start turning applications down as our funds are being depleted, so we are asking all our loyal supporters to continue to help us to help those vulnerable families living in our Diocese.
