A ‘simcha’ for Kermit, Rob Rinder, David Tennant and Mel C
Camp Simcha launch their 'Make the Difference’ fundraising appeal.
Can you say Camp Simcha? With many struggling to pronounce that elusive ‘cha’ sound, Camp Simcha has issued this challenge to celebrities, in a must-see video made to launch its upcoming ‘Make the Difference’ appeal.
The charity, which provides practical, therapeutic and emotional support services to UK families with seriously ill children, needs to raise as much as possible towards its annual £2.8million running costs.
Among the famous faces trying to ‘say Camp Simcha’ are actor David Tennant, singer-songwriter Mel C and even Kermit the Frog gives it his best shot. Meanwhile TV presenter Rob Rinder gives his tips on how to get it just right.
Camp Simcha’s 36-hour appeal is on February 5th and 6th, during which time every donation will be doubled.
