A great way to help us is to choose the RNLI as your school's Charity of the Year. This can be a particularly effective way of raising money. When a school chooses a charity of the year it means it focuses all its fundraising efforts on raising money for that charity. Some schools for example concentrate all their main fundraising push into one week, putting on a large number of different events. Other schools spread their fundraising events over the whole year doing a different event every month. If you have chosen the RNLI as your charity of the year let us know so that we make sure your year is a very special year for you and your students.
