Giving Nation is a Citizenship Foundation project that supports secondary schools undertaking work to support charity and community.   

It offers schools a free pack that enables both lessons and whole school activities to meet curriculum targets whilst developing the school’s activities around giving to others.   Order the pack by clicking on the flashing icon on the teacher site.

Giving Nation has been designed with a commitment to minimising effort by teachers whilst keeping a high impact on the lives of students. We are providing ready-to-use resources and templates for both teachers and pupils, facilitating everything from ’rag week’ style magazines to self-appraisal by pupils as they review their activities for charity and others over the year.

All materials are produced in our G-Nation style, bringing a unifying and acceptable appeal to activities within the school and between schools. Our ambition is to enrol people into an identification with charitable giving that finds a focus and celebration in ’G-Week’: a national celebration of the power of giving to shape the world.

Giving Nation is being supported by a unique piece of research into students’ knowledge, attitudes and behaviours in regard to charities and giving, and also into teachers’ views of Giving Nation.

It is also supported by an exciting website for young people. A place where they can play games that illustrate the power of cooperation, can find inspiration, chat to others and have their questions answered. The website also leads them on to action if that’s what they’re ready for, with links to hundreds of places to participate in communities and for national organisations.

This website will also become your port of call for tricks and tools to make your own school programme come alive.
