Musical card range adds to £50,000 donation for Great Ormond Street Hospital
Moonpig has been making music with Great Ormond Street Hospital for Christmas with a £50,000 donation and special festive sends.
The 12-strong children’s hospital-themed charity cards are available on the online greetings, gift and celebrations retailer’s website and each has a QR code to scan for recipients to listen to the GOSH Choir singing Deck The Halls.
It wouldn’t be Christmas without the sound of carols, so this first musical charity collaboration dials up the festive spirit – from twinkling trees to starlit scenes, each design sends a little extra Christmas joy to those who need it this year.
“”We know that Christmas can be a difficult time,” Moonpig’s global design and licensing director Sarah-Jane Porter said, “especially for those who can’t be with loved ones. That’s why we’ve partnered with Great Ormond Street Hospital to create a range of cards that bring joy and connection, no matter where you are. By scanning the QR code, you can share a special moment and spread some festive cheer.”
Alongside this special range – part of the online retailer’s biggest-yet charity selection of over 100 designs – Moonpig is proud to be donating £50,000 in support of GOSH’s arts programme, funded by GOSH Charity, which works to bring joy to children.
GOSH Charity’s deputy director of relationship fundraising Sarah Bissell said: “It’s fantastic to see this new range of cards go on sale, and we are so grateful for the hugely generous donation from Moonpig.
“The money raised will support the GOSH Arts programme, which is funded by GOSH Charity and provides vital entertainment, arts and music projects to help bring joy to the seriously-ill children and their families at the hospital.
“It will help make Christmas feel like Christmas for the children and their families at GOSH whose treatment has to continue over the festive season.”
