Jeans for Genes raises funds for research into serious genetic disorders affecting thousands of children, as well as valuable support services and advice for families.
In the UK, one baby in every 33 is born with a genetic disorder or birth defect - that's one born every 30 minutes whose life could be affected. In 2006, Jeans for Genes will be benefiting 10 national charities, including Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity, SPARKS and WellChild.
Providing you are paid through PAYE, donations can be made to any national/local charity or recognised good cause such as places of worship, schools and scout groups.
You can nominate more than one charity to benefit from your donations - and you can easily change the amount or nominated charities at any time. If your chosen charity is not listed on this site you can still support them but please include the charity number so there is no delay in forwarding on your donation.
