The Charities:
Sparks is the only UK children’s charity whose remit is to fund medical research across the whole
spectrum of childhood illnesses. Our aim is to ensure that all babies are born healthy and all children
grow up healthy. Sparks funds research across the UK that has a global impact. Do you know any babies
or children faced with cerebral palsy, meningitis, spina bifida, childhood arthritis, childhood cancer, brain
damage, epilepsy, pre-eclampsia, cystic fibrosis or cleft lip and palate? If so, Sparks has touched the lives
of these children and their families.
The St. George's Society of New York is a charitable organization as well as a fellowship society. Founded in 1770 by English settlers for the purpose of offering “advice and relief” to fellow Englishmen in need or distress, its mission today is twofold. St. George’s Society assists elderly or disabled residents in
the New York area of British and Commonwealth heritage and provides scholarships to students at
Lehman College who are either British Commonwealth immigrants or first generation British
Commonwealth descendants.
Play Rugby USA is the primary youth development program of Play Sports for Life, a 501c3 approved
non profit organisation. The program's philosophy is to "develop youth through rugby". Focused primarily
on under served urban communities, the program has reached over 100 schools and 9,000 students in
New York City, Boston, Philadelphia and most recently Washington D.C.. PRUSA's curriculum based sports
education services have proven to develop young peoples' character, communities, physical well being
and academic commitment. In doing so the program has changed lives and offered opportunities to
students they may otherwise have never received. |
