Sponsorship and help request for Post Pals Party 2016
Apr 28, 2016
We are holding a fun fair themed party for seriously ill children, their siblings and parents on June 25th in Surrey. The party starts at 12 and we are expecting around 100 people. Being a small charity we really need your help!
Our help request covers everything from sponsorship of items to cake baking and volunteering of skills. We will be asking for general volunteers nearer the time to help with things on the day. We will also publish an Amazon wish list nearer the time too.

Skills Needed
Signage- Some big fun fair styled signs for our games. Handmade or printed is welcome. VOLUNTEER FOUND
Nails- preferably 2 people with a large collection of nail varnishes to come and paint nails on the day. VOLUNTEER FOUND
Picture board- We would like a few large fun fair themed pictures with the ‘faces’ cut out and a candy themed one. The type people stand behind and put their faces through to have their picture taken. Again this can be handmade or printed but need to be quite large so more than one person can have their picture taken at the same time.
Balloon Modeling- Looking for someone who is able to attend (budget £50) and for someone to sponsor it.
Juggler- You don’t have to be a professional, just good at juggling and own your own clubs/balls/scarves/diabolos
Any other talented people or those who own games they could lend that would fit into a funfair themed party.
