Fundraising appeal to raise £2000 for children’s gardening club.

Calling all friends of NGCFI!! We need your help urgently! We currently have a shortfall in funding for our weekly after-school kids club at Milton Community Garden and are appealing for donations to help keep this popular and busy club up and running!

We need to raise £2000 by the end of April 2020 in order to keep the club going.

The Young Planters Club has been a local fixture for a number of years now and we have lots of lovely children who come along every week and get involved in all sorts of healthy after-school activities at the garden.

The children get the opportunity to grow their own fruit and veg, find out about composting and learn about the food cycle from ‘plough to plate’. They learn how to cook with produce grown in the garden and share food together. They also have lots of fun!

The children themselves are kicking off the fundraising by hosting a mini bake sale and pop-up cafe for their friends and families, as part of their weekly club. They will be baking their own scones and cakes for the sale. But they will need lots of help to reach the target of £2000!

If you can make a donation, large or small, please contact us by email at admin@ngcfi.org.uk or phone 0141 772 0299”

Also, you can donate online via Kindlink
