Send My Friend to School 08
World leaders have promised that all children will have a primary education by 2015, but with only 7 years to go there are still 72 million children who miss out on education completely.
Send My Friend to School 08 is asking politicians and decision makers to speed up their efforts to ensure that all children get the chance to go to school.
This year’s challenge is to get all UK MPs involved through schools sending them ‘missing out’ cards and asking them to pledge their support. Each card symbolises one of the millions of children worldwide who have never had the chance to go to school.
Sign up now! You can order FREE school resources, including a set of 60 action cards for pupils, stickers, a special MPs ‘missing out’ card included in our leaflet, and a campaign DVD.
Send My Friend 08 is organised by the Global Campaign for Education in the UK, which we are a part of.
