This Lent, we’re asking you to do something a little different to help save the lives of people with blood cancer – drop your change down a sofa. Sound odd? Let us explain.
Every day, we use our register to match remarkable individuals willing to donate their stem cells to people in desperate need of lifesaving transplants. Last year we gave 933 people the chance of life and hope for a healthy, happy future. But there are still so many more who need our help.
A
nd that’s where you come in. You can help us give hope to people in need of a stem cell transplant by being part of our Sofa of Change appeal. It’s easy. Just use our resource pack for inspiration for your Lent services, and fun activities for your youth church. Then fill your Sofa of Change collection boxes with your pennies and pounds.
It costs us £100 to recruit, tissue type and look after each new donor. The money you drop between the cushions of your Sofas of Change will help us add more of these incredible individuals to our register – and save more lives.
To order your Sofa of Change collection boxes, resource packs and fundraising materials, or for more information, please call us on 0303 303 3000 or email events@anthonynolan.org.
