How does contacting my MP help in getting education for all?

Your Member of Parliament (MP) is the first link in a chain of influence all the way from you to the world leaders whose decisions will affect whether we can achieve education for all.

Is this a new campaign?

No, Send my Friend to School has been running since 2005. We’re part of a huge global movement called the Global Campaign for Education. Take a look at the Campaign timeline to find out what we have achieved so far.

Who else is involved?

Over 10,000 schools and youth groups, and millions of children, have been involved so far in the UK. Take a look at the your stories section for examples what young people have done around the UK.

By joining Send My Friend to School, you become part of something really huge, because right around the world people are also calling for education for all. More than 18 million people in 100 countries have taken part in campaigning activities.

In 2008 we set an amazing world record when 8.8 million people all did a lesson at the same time to make it the World’s Biggest Lesson, and this year, young people will be raising their voices right round the world to make sure world leaders make the right decisions to Unlock Education for Everyone.

Can we raise money to help?

Massive change needs action on a massive scale, with the support of governments and international organisations, so Send My Friend to School asks schools and young people to raise their voices, rather than raise money.

However, if you wish to make a donation to the Send My Friend to School campaign, it is very much appreciated.
