Thank you x
I understand that the HITH project is not a registered charity.
It is a project run by a bereaved mum who loves making jewellery and wanted to create a tangible gift for parents to share with their baby when saying goodbye.
The cost to buy the gifts are reduced to help support as many families as possible. The charge for the gifts goes towards the purchase of all materials, time to put them together and the postage to send them out.
It is an absolute labour of love!
When fundraising for HITH gifts, I agree that I am fundraising to be able to purchase a number of keyrings that I can donate to my local hospital or agreed hospital in need, in order to provide a gift for parents as they say goodbye.
I understand that I have been given permission to use the HITH images and documents that will be provided to help spread the word of the project and my fundraising efforts.
