There’s nothing better than giving the gift of love and that’s what we do at the Buddy Bag Foundation with our Buddy Bags, our ‘bags of love’ which bring comfort to children who enter emergency care in the UK after fleeing a domestically violent situation.
This Valentine’s Day, help us to make a bigger difference as we mark this Valentine’s Day in 2022 with ways you can make a difference.
Buy and gift a Buddy Bear
Buy a B1G1 Buddy Bear and gift one to a child at the same time. When you buy your bear, we will gift one on your behalf and the bear you gift will go directly into one of our rucksacks for a child.
When you purchase, you tell us what you would like to say on the label which we handwrite and attach to the bear.
You pay £9.99 + P&P and add your message and we will do the rest for you.
Watch Paula’s video below as she explains how it works.
BBF Challenge Box for Valentine’s Day
Have some Valentine’s fun with your team.
The BBF Challenge Box is a unique opportunity for businesses to support a local cause, whilst also providing a fun and engaging team-building opportunity.
The challenge is split into two parts. Firstly, team members are tasked with procuring all of the items needed to pack 30 Buddy Bags. Secondly, you’ll get together to pack the bags.
It’s easy to apply, just send us your details and we will send you everything you need for your own Valentine’s Day challenge box.
What’s in a Buddy Bag?
A Buddy Bag is a backpack that contains all the essential items a child needs.
They include toiletries, pyjamas and underwear, in addition to comfort items such as a book and a teddy bear.
A Buddy Bag is something a child can call their own, no matter where they go.
Buddy Bags are tailored to suit babies, children and young people according to age groups and gender.
A £25 donation buys a ‘bag of love’ and 100% of your donation goes into making our bags so we can use every penny to make a difference to every child who receives one.
Making a donation, gifting a bear or getting together as a team to pack your own bags is a wonderful way you can make a difference to children in emergency care in the UK.
If you have any questions, please get in touch with us and we are always happy to help.
