Cash for Kids NI are giving local disadvantaged schools the opportunity to win much needed funds as part of the School's Challenge campaign. Money that can go towards...

⚽️ Sports Equipment

✏️ Stationery

🎻 Musical Instruments

🎨 Art Supplies

🧪 Science Equipment & much more

We understand the incredible pressures schools face, especially during times such as these. So, Cash for Kids NI are giving local schools the chance of winning up to £5,000!

Each school taking part will fundraise as much as they between 2nd to 27th October 2023. At the end of the campaign, Cash for Kids will then grant back all funds raised by the school AND offer additional grants to fund projects which directly benefit a number of children or positively influences the quality of their lives.

The top three fundraising schools will receive £5,000, £3,000 and £2,000 on top of what they raise*. There are also additional prizes of £500 each for the best use of social media and the most creative fundraising.

Entries are open until 4pm on Thursday 14th September

After applications close, a member of the Cash for Kids team will be in touch to arrange a briefing. Please read the challenge terms and conditions before entering.

As you are applying for a grant (with Cash for Kids returning your total, and the potential additional top up), we must ask schools to submit a grant application which demonstrates how the money will be used to help pupils over their disadvantage.
