brownies are hoping your Wish tokens will help them to plan for their next outing.
First set up in 1987, the 12th Middlesbrough (Baptist) Brownies are a group of 14 girls aged between seven and 11.
While promoting friendship, sharing and kindness, the girls enjoy crafts, baking, playing games and various other team-building activities.
The group, run by volunteers at Middlesbrough Baptist Church, used the Wish support they received from Gazette readers last year to help fund this year’s Big Brownie Birthday celebrations which marked 100 years of Brownies.
The group is also in the process of using the money to help buy new adventure books which every Brownie and leader needs.
After registering for Wish again this year, the group’s Glynis Parks said: “We are hoping to take the girls on an outing so the money would help with that. Also it would go to the cost of crafts.”
Every year, The Gazette’s Wish campaign gives away thousands of pounds to not-for-profit groups and organisations benefiting the Teesside community.
Each registered group will be guaranteed a share of our £40,000 fund.
The more tokens a group collects, the bigger its share of the prize pot.
Tokens are now appearing daily in The Gazette.
The last token will appear on January 21.
Submissions for tokens will close at 5pm on Monday, February 23.
To help the 12th Middlesbrough (Baptist) Brownies, send your tokens to 35 Birchgate Road, Linthorpe, Middlesbrough, TS5 5NP. Today’s tokens are on this page.
