Burpham Primary School PTA (UK, 1098735) Browse events

YTD Raised: £6,575.85

The Burpham Primary School Parents Support Group ("the PSG") is a Parent Teacher Association and has been registered as a charity since July 2003 (Registered Charity No. 1098735). All parents/guardians, teaching and non-teaching staff, and governors at the school are automatically included in the membership of the PSG, hence another reason behind the name - Parents, Staff and Governors.    What is our purpose and how are we organised? Our purpose is, officially, "to enhance the education of the pupils at Burpham Primary School in particular by, developing effective relationships between the staff, parents and others associated with the school; and engaging in activities or providing facilities or equipment which support the school and advance the education of the pupils" - which is a long-winded way of saying we aim to raise money for the school to buy equipment and support other activities whilst ensuring that everyone has plenty of fun along the way!    As a charity, the PSG has registered trustees who are responsible for the overall workings of the group. The trustees are usually the Chairperson, Treasurer and Secretary plus the Headteacher. Together with the trustees, the publicity officer and class representatives form the wider committee. The Annual General Meeting is held in September. Apart from the usual formalities we use this time to elect the committee for the coming year.    The committee meets approximately once a term to hear the treasurers report, to make decisions on what the funds raised are spent on, to ensure compliance with necessary regulations and to oversee the fundraising timetable. Its also an opportunity to meet other parents and exchange views on whats happening in school and have a say in where the money is spent.    Each fund-raising, social or support event is often organised by a sub-group of people. We welcome ideas from all parents for both fundraising and social events. We especially welcome volunteers to organise these events and make them work for us.    The PSG has its own bank account, separate from School, which finances approved projects for the school and holds profits. A newsletter is sent out regularly to all parents updating everyone on events and monies raised.    Fundraising and Fun During the year we hold a variety of events. Examples of past fundraising activities include; Quiz night, Disco, Christmas Fair, Jumble sale , Easter Cake Sale, Auction of Promises, Pamper Night, Summer Fair, etc. All these events require volunteers to help make them a success and we are always looking for new ideas from parents and offers of help for those willing to organise a particular event.    Support Activities The PSG also get involved in school to help the teachers with events (and sometimes raise a bit more money in the process). Many parents support the school in other ways. We have a small army of volunteer parents who help in the classroom with reading, cooking, helping with the swimming run, library and other activities.  

Everythings 13 (UK, 1143262) Browse events

YTD Raised: £6,572.13

We're an educational charity aiming to demystify the wisdom of the Sikh Gurus and inspire and uplift society. We run a youtube channel called “Basics of Sikhi” (www.youtube.com/basicsofsikhi), a weekly katha and kirtan programme at Park Avenue Gurdwara in Southall, a touring lecture series at Gurdwaras and Universities called “Sikhi in English” and a 12-week introductory course to Sikhi called the "Why Guru Course"(www.everythings13.org/Everythings_13/Why_Guru_Course) Our latest initiative is "PLAN BE13" Plan B by Everythings 13 This is Plan B - Everyone has a plan A.  Someone’s waiting for Guru Gobind Singh ji, someone’s waiting for Santji, someone’s waiting for mahaan Gurmukhs to come and sort out our problems. Fair enough, we know we are none of those, we’re just plan B, the stand in guys, average Sikhs, trying to make a difference. We’ll do our best, let Maharaaj do the rest. E 13 like Everythings 13, a properly registered charity and eligible for gift aid from HMRC. We have already built a track record of physical and online parchaar and on the humanitarian front, have given sizeable amounts to notable causes to help others in the Panth and outside. Be = Sounds like 20 in Punjabi and along with 13 makes 2013 **This is a trial project of one year** After confirmation from Hukamnama of Sri Guru Granth sahib, we’re stepping out of our comfort zone to see if full time parchaar can make a big impact. We're going to start employing people to spread Guru's message globally, though talks, videos and the WhyGuru Course. Everything will be documented in a blog and posted online to see how much was done with the support of the Sangat. 13 = In Punjabi sounds like Tera, ie "Vaheguru, this is yours". So BE13 means lets be the servants of Vaheguru, lets give with open hearts, saying to vaheguru that  everything we have is a gift. Be = Be part of this one year trial project, be the Guru’s sikh, the supporter of the Panth as we look to hire 5 full time parchariks across the UK and globally! Why hire people full time? There is so much work to be done and giving up (because of the enormity of the task) is not an option. If we look at any organisation that is sustainable and has succeeded, it’s because they have full time staff. We’re not looking to kill people, nor pay them a killing, simply to pay them a living. To put this in context, the British Territorial Army match a soldiers civilian pay if they are to be deployed on operations. We’re not doing that. Its likely that the people we want will have to take a signifant pay drop as our target is to pay a maximum of 2000x13 = £26k. What's the maths of this? If you pledge £1300 per year, we only need 20 people like you to hire a full time parchaarik! (£108 per month) If you pledge £13 a week, we can hire a parchaarik with just 40 people like you! (£57 a month) If you pledge £13 a month, we just need 166 people like you! If you pledge £130 per year, we only need 200 people like you. (£11 per month) If you pledge just £13, we only need 2000 such donations! If you’re thinking, I can give a lot more than that. If 13 people give £2000 for one year or 2 people give £13000 for one year we could do the same. Why not do this as a family or business. Can you just imagine it? 5 full time parchariks, spreading the Basics of Sikhi, teachings courses, doing talks, touring globally, engaging at universities, with the public, online, Gurdwaras, at City Centre… Just imagine the change...and it only requires the support of the sangat.. So BE part of this, BE one of those people. Say that iPower Plan BE13. Join us by clicking the “Make a monthly donation” button on the right. Vaheguru ji ka Khalsa, Vaheguru ji ki Fateh
