applicable to anywhere in the country. (KS3)

As part of the provision for citizenship education in schools the Citizenship
Foundation and Directory of Social Change (the leading provider of information and
training for charities) have produced, with part-funding from the Charities Aid
Foundation, Charity Matters - a resource pack for teachers of 14-17 year-olds.
With
photocopiable materials and teachers' notes for guidance, the activities are designed to
help students understand some of the many questions arising from the work of
charities.
Some of the issues and questions raised are:
the purpose of charities and how they are established;
why do charities exist?
attitudes towards giving;
do we have any obligations to give to charity?
do the rich have a duty to help the poor?
how charities raise money;
does it matter how charities try to raise money?
the National Lottery;
the difficulty of deciding how to respond to needy causes.
