Whatever you're giving up for Lent, why not give a little something back to African Children's Fund at the same time?

We've even crunched the numbers on the items you might be thinking of giving up, so you don't have to!

Takeaway coffee - £3.47 each

Beer - £4.83 per pint

Chocolate - £1.67 for a 4-bar multipack

Crisps - £2.20 for a 6-bag multipack

Wine - £5.17 per glass

Fizzy drinks - £1.90 per litre

Can you help us raise £100 per week of Lent?

Even seemingly small donations can make a big difference in helping children in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Zimbabwe go to school, rather than working, scavenging or begging on the streets for food. By giving back just a small amount of what you're giving up, you will help a child born into poverty improve their opportunities for a more prosperous future.

Thank you for your kindness!
