Bring us youre tired your poor you bashed up guitars… and we can resurect them. Leave it to those crafy Brits to come up with an amazing idea and a great move for charity.
Marc Carey Regional Sales and Marketing Europe commented 'Hard Rock Cafe is urging as many people as possible to help us with this fantastic scheme. It doesn't matter what condition the guitar is in our expert guitar technician will make them as good as new. The work Barnado's do is incredible and we're proud to be supporting them in their work with children across the UK'. I like the way the Brits call it a scheme like its a sneaky move.
Jane Stacey, Barnardo's UK Director of Children's Services said: 'Barnardo's are delighted to be partnering with the Hard Rock Cafe through this innovative scheme. It's great that children and young people who are supported by Barnardo's services across the country will benefit from the generosity of those who donate their second hand guitars.'
Barnardos is a children chairty that really takes on some innovative fundraising plans. Their mission statement:
Barnardo’s transforms the lives of vulnerable children across the UK through the work of our projects, our campaigning and our research expertise.We believe we can bring out the best in every child whether the issue is child poverty, sexual exploitation, disability and domestic violence.
Is there a reason Hard Rock Cafe's in the US arent doing the same thing? We should- its a fantastic plan.
