Read about Jess' fantastic fundraising
Here is Jess (11) one of our awesome fundraisers letting us know what they did to help raise over £1000 for WWF!
'I have always loved animals, especially tigers, and I love art too. I wanted to bring my two passions together to help wildlife, so I decided to raise money for WWF through my artwork. Over a few months, using watercolours, I painted 5 of my favourite endangered animals, a tiger, an elephant, a polar bear, a dolphin and a sea turtle. My parents helped me have my paintings scanned so that we could print them onto gift cards, bookmarks, notepads and other items to sell at local events.
Thanks to the support of my family, friends and local community, I have now raised over £1,000 for WWF, which is much more than I ever imagined. I am very proud that my artwork has helped raise money and awareness for wildlife conservation. My fundraising journey is not over yet as I'm currently working on a wildlife calendar featuring more of my paintings! I am excited to keep going as I really admire the work WWF does to help animals around the world. I hope this inspires others to start fundraising to make a difference by doing something they love!'
