Story
I am part of a small team taking part in the Million Makers Challenge, raising money for The Prince’s Trust. Million Makers is The Trust's flagship entrepreneurial challenge, which sees teams of employees, from companies across the UK, competing to turn £1,500 into at least £10,000 or more.
This winter we took part in a virtual triathlon, to run, swim and cycle 2021 miles from Bristol to Monaco and back 🏃🏽♀️🏊🏼♀️🚴🏻♀️ We've smashed our target and reached over 2100 miles and appreciate any support to keep us going!
In the face of COVID-19 young people need support more than ever. COVID-19 has had a drastic impact on the lives and futures of young people, with 46% saying that finding a job during this period has been impossible and 43% indicating their anxiety has increased drastically. These statistics are then compounded by charity sector facing an estimated £4 billion loss in the next quarter as a result on the ongoing pandemic.
Any donations however small are greatly appreciated!
How will your donations help?
• £3 could buy the course materials needed to teach a young person the basics of starting a life changing business.
• £15 could pay for a young person’s maths qualification.
• £100 could fund a two hour session that helps a young person overcome self-destructive behaviour.
• £250 could support a young person struggling at school to finish their education by attending an after-school club.
• £1,000 could fund a day of speed interviews, getting thirty five young people in front of life changing opportunities with potential employers.
Thank you for participating in Million Makers 2020, a collective effort to raise millions for The Prince's Trust!
