It will help your students understand why they are fundraising and inspire them to raise money for Red Nose Day 2015, which is on Friday 13th March. Use ‘Rabecca’s story’, our short film about an 18-year-old girl from Zambia, who, along with her younger brother and sister, was orphaned two years ago. The film can be streamed or DOWNLOADED at rednoseday.com/rabecca Your students will learn about how Rabecca’s life changed when she was orphaned. They’ll also see how money raised through Red Nose Day is helping turn lives around by supporting children like Rabecca to go to school.

This Red Nose Day, the money raised by the great British public will help vulnerable and disadvantaged people across the UK and in Africa. And Comic Relief is setting schools a special mission – to raise enough money to get 300,000 children across Africa into education and learning. And the best bit is that the UK government will double the money UK schools raise.   [[*The UK government is doubling the money raised up to £10 million so let’s aim for nine million, nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine pounds and ninety-nine pence!]]

Show your students this film about Rabecca, an 18-year-old girl from Zambia who could no longer afford to go to school when her parents died. The film will help your students understand the challenges faced by some children and the way Comic Relief money helps.   This film can be streamed or DOWNLOADED from rednoseday.com/rabecca
