HOPEHIV FOR schools
   
HOPEHIV works with schools to help students engage with the challenges faced by their peers in Sub-Saharan Africa, and resources them to be part of the solution.
The Social Entrepreneurs Project (SEP) introduces entrepreneurial skills and social awareness to the UK classroom. Given 'seed capital', pupils come up with creative business ideas, then develop commercial skills as they make it happen. All profits are donated to HOPEHIV, so pupils learn what it means to make a real difference. Find out more about SEP here.
A great way to help us is to adopt HOPEHIV as your school's charity of the year. In doing so, you will be giving your students the opportunity to learn about what every day life looks like for some of the most vulnerable children and young people on the planet as a result of the AIDS epidemic. Your students will help create hope and opportunity for them by investing their own potential in that of their peers overseas. Find out more about what this might look like for your class or school here or contact Kirsty on kirsty@hopehiv.org
If you would like to support HOPEHIV with a one off school fundraising event we’d love to hear form you. We have a list of fundraising ideas here that can get you started. We also have a variety of materials including posters and booklets about HOPEHIV which might be of help to you. See our resources page for more details or contact Kirsty on kirsty@hopehiv.org who would be happy to pop some in the post for you.
A fun and easy campaign idea that everyone can get involved in - wear your favourite football shirt or sports top to school for the day and raise money for HOPEHIV through sponsorships. To find out more click here or contact Kirsty on kirsty@hopehiv.org

We see hope in Henry, Will and Nick.
Harry McKay, Will Nelson and Nick Desclee are all 4th form students at King College Wimbledon. They took on the SEP in January 2011 as a year group. Their original idea was to hold a film night for students to turn their £10 into £100; after some complications they landed on the idea of holding a wine tasting evening for parents, concluding that this was where the true money lies! Henry spent five weeks travelling around Wimbledon village and writing endless emails to collect donations for an auction and gaining sponsorship for the event. After much hard work they managed to sell 51 tickets to the event and on the night raised a staggering total of £1,503!
“The project gave all three of us a fantastic experience, and we hope to continue fundraising in the future.”
