Blankets for Babies Campaign
HiPP calls on your support; and will donate money for every parcel
received
Plus - FREE SPOON SET in return for every donation received!
Donate your old baby blankets and clothes, and we will give 50p to 'Feed
the children' for every parcel received. We are proud to support 'Feed the Children' during 2007 and our 'Blankets
for Babies' campaign runs until the end of the year.
Items you donate will be sent by 'Feed the Children' to needy
babies and children within relief projects running in Africa and
Asia; including those helping victims of the Pakistan earthquake.
Desperately needed items include clean woollen blankets; terry
nappies and baby clothes (but not baby grows please).
Every little
helps. We urge all parents to dig out their unwanted baby things
and send them in for the campaign. Even if it's just one or two items such as a baby blanket or a couple of terry nappies. Sending them second class and putting them in an A4 envelope will suffice. For
every package sent in, HiPP will donate 50 pence to 'Feed the Children'. The money raised will help fund the consignments to stricken regions where simple baby items like this are urgently needed.
Free Feeding Spoons for donators!
As a thank you for donations received, Feed the Children will
send a free set of 4 colourful Hipp feeding spoons to everybody
who includes their name and address with their donation.
Brian
Main, Chief Executive of Feed the Children says "The children and
babies in the regions where we send aid, urgently need clothing
and blankets for warmth as well as terry nappies which are in such
short supply there. The 'Blankets for Babies' campaign will help
to address this. Our aim at 'Feed the Children' is to create more
opportunities and a brighter future for children who have been
neglected, abandoned or exploited as a result of poverty, conflict
or disaster. Our work often involves helping families with young
babies, as well as helping orphaned infants at our Abandoned Baby
Centre in Kenya."
