WHO RECEIVES THE MONEY WE RAISE?
Since 2020, Spifox Too have supported the charities below with the fundraising from our events.
September 2024 welcomed the sun and the crowds to Hillhead Sports Club once again for the annual Glasgow Pimm's & Pétanque charity fundraiser. Beneficiary Young Lives vs Cancer were there to speak about the work they do and to encourage the guests to dig deep for this great cause. Young Lives vs Cancer help families find the strength to face everything cancer throws at them. From financial grants for a parent struggling to keep their child warm through their treatment to helping a family stay together at one of their free Homes from Home close to the hospital where their child is having treatment. The event allowed a pledge of £7,000 to be made to the charity.
The return of the popular Spifox Too Edinburgh Pimm's & Pétanque event in 2024 focused on The Teapot Trust charity. Teapot Trust transforms the lives of children and families living with long term, and often painful, health conditions through art therapy. Provided UK wide the art therapy is as an effective psychological intervention to improve the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people with health conditions such as Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis, Sickle Cell Disease and Cystic Fibrosis. £4,786 was raised and donated to the charity.
In 2024, we organized the inaugural Spifox Too Edinburgh Pub Quiz, raising an impressive £6,770 for the Jeely Piece Club.
