We've been asked by Plan UK to find 20 Mumsnetters willing to talk online about giving to charity and about sponsoring a child. We need to find UK based MNers who already give to charity (at least 3 times a year) - possibly already to children's charities or international development charities who are willing to discuss the idea of sponsoring a child (it doesn't matter if you currently do or don't sponsor a child).
If selected to take part, you'll be invited to take part in a discussion in a private area of the site. This will take place between 10th and 14th October. You'd need to respond to some initial questions early in the week and then towards the end of the week we'll add some additional questions which you'd also need to respond to - making your final comments by Sunday 16th October.
Your views will be used by Plan UK to help attract more sponsors. Your comments (not with your nickname) may be used on the Plan UK pages on Mumsnet which are coming soon. All comments are confidential.
As a thank you each participant will be sent a £10 Amazon voucher.
In case you don't know about Plan UK - this is what they say "Plan UK Child Sponsorship: the Plan that changes lives. When sponsoring a child with Plan, you'll become part of a very special plan. A plan that will transform their life and yours. For just 50 pence a day, sponsors share a unique one-to-one connection with a child in one of the developing communities in which we work. Sponsors receive letters and pictures direct from the child they sponsor, plus reports showing exactly how sponsors' donations are improving the lives of children, their families and whole communities"
If you're able and willing to take part please add your details here
Many thanks - MNHQ
