Baby & Children's Market

Baby & Children's Market - North Wales

Glyndwr University - Northop Hall

Saturday 28/02/2015

Seller fee: free (The organization of the event allowed us to have a free stall as we were there for fundraising)

Setting up time: 09:00 am

Leaving time: 01:00 pm

We arrived there at 9:15 and there were sellers setting up their tables in the big sports court at Glyndwr University. It was a nice day and we were excited to have our first fundraising event of the year. Heather, the market manager, received us with a smile and made us feel welcome. She took us to our table that was marked with our name. At this event we used our Child of Brazil t-shirts for the first time, which help us being recognised as a charity organisation. We also used videos running on a laptop so people could see some images and know what we do and who we help. We always want to make people know we are there for a good cause.

We took mostly baby's things: clothes, shoes, toys, blankets, bouncy chairs, a pushchair, a baby bath, a car seat and two high chairs. We also took some sweets which caught children's eyes as soon as they reached our table.

Time passed quickly and we had a good opportunity to raise funds to help our sister charity in Brazil: Jardim das Oliveiras. Thank you Heather, Thank you Baby and Children's Market - North Wales.

Hope we can have another chance to participate in a Market like that soon.
