Fundraising & Donations
Supporting Balloons
Raising funds is critical to enable us to help more children and young people. Every year we need to raise enough money to cover our costs. As a small, local charity, run entirely on grants and donations, this is challenging. Every penny raised enables us to deliver our service and make a real difference to bereaved children and young people. Thank you so much for wanting to support Balloons.
