Easter Egg Appeal Goes Crazy
Easter Egg Appeal Goes Crazy
We smashed it! (Again)
The JCI Bradford Easter Egg Appeal project launched in 2014 achieving phenomenal success collecting 1070 Easter eggs. The eggs are collected and then distributed to disadvantaged children across local charities.
Similar to the Secret Santa Appeal, which has just celebrated its 25th are collected from local businesses who have volunteered to help.
This year we collected a fantastic 2293 eggs from 32 companies, with a target of 1100 this is a huge achievement and everyone at JCI Bradford is extremely pleased and overwhelmed with the amount of help received. Michelle Pemberton, Community Director, says "The appeal has really caught the imagination and hearts of Bradford this year to create such an amazing amount of eggs for disadvantaged children. I am overwhelmed by the generosity and hard work each and every school and company have put in to the appeal to make its second year twice as big as the pilot year. We cannot express our gratitude enough to everyone who got involved, they have all made our second year of the appeal a great success in providing 2293 children with an egg at a special time of the year. We could not do it without their support and kindness."
