Can I get a shout out on the radio? Sorry! Global’s Make Some Noise cannot ask for radio mentions or shout-outs for fundraisers – there just wouldn’t be enough time to fit everybody’s name in! My child is sick, can Make Some Noise donate money to help him? Sadly, Global’s Make Some Noise cannot support individual children, young people or families. We concentrate on supporting registered charities, each of which provides fantastic support for children and young people across the UK. You can see the full list of the amazing charities we support on our website at: www.makesomenoise.com/make-some-noise-projects/ Why do you only support children’s and young peoples’ charities? Global’s Make Some Noise is dedicated to helping disadvantaged children and young people affected by illness, disability, bereavement or lack of opportunity. We’re making some noise for those who cannot be heard and changing young lives across the country. What has happened to Help a London Child, Help a Capital Child and Have a Heart? Thanks to your amazing support, our former charities have come together as Global’s Make Some Noise. We have been raising money for 40 years, raising £35 million and helping 3 million children and their families. We’re delighted to be uniting our stations and listeners behind Make Some Noise, to raise even more for those who need it most.
