CHARITY FUNDRAISING BY BGGS
Staff and pupils at Bordesley Green Girls' School & Sixth Form support a wide range of charitable organisations and good causes.
From cake sales and talent shows to sponsored moustache-growing (by the men!), our BGGS school community is committed to helping others less fortunate than ourselves as well as raising money to support more vulnerable members of our own school community going through tough times.
“The charity you give will be your shade on the Day of Judgement.” Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W)
‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it", (gave help), "to one of the least of these My brothers, you did it to Me.’ Jesus, (Gospel of St. Matthew 25:40)
“No one has ever become poor by giving.” Anne Frank
We have raised £631.03 this year, (2024), and a Grand Total of £24,775.06 since May 2017!
