Be a Stamp Champ!
Collect used stamps for Pyjama Fairies and help raise vital funds for helping children sparkle.
Collecting used stamps is an easy way to raise money for Pyjama Fairies. All you need to do is tear the stamped corner from any envelope or packet that you receive in the post, trim them so that there is around 1cm of paper around each stamp, and start a collection.
Once you have a large bundle, bag them up and send them to us at the address below. Why not ask your friends and family to collect their stamps too, and save on postage by sending them together?
How your stamps help
By collecting just 1kg of stamps for us you can help pay for set of special pyjamas and surgical gown to be donated to a child undergoing a medical intervention, to give an emotional boost to the child and remind them that they are not defined by their illness.
Schools and Businness
You can become a Pyjama Fairies Stamp Champ for your business, school, college or place of work and turn lots of post into money that will help make medical interventions more comfortable for children.
Place a collection box in a communal area to encourage your colleagues, students or classmates to start collecting stamps. In school, you could turn it into a competition to see which class or year group can collect the most stamps in a given time period.
One box can hold up to 7kg of stamps, which would provide more than £100 for the charity. You can download an editable poster to advertise your collections:
Send Your Stamps!
We have three products available for stamp savers. Pick the right one for you from our options below.
- The postage paid envelope – a C4 sized gusseted envelope for packing up your stamps and posting them straight back. These are for smaller donations, up to 700g / (1.5 pounds) gross weight, roughly half a carrier bag full of trimmed stamps, and are ideal for handing out to friends and colleagues.
- The collecting box – for display rather than posting. These boxes are ideal for being placed in a public place like your school or place of work, the dentist or perhaps at the meeting place of the club you attend. They have information on the boxes so that supporters know who their stamps are helping.
- The ‘heavy duty’ box – This is the one you want if you are posting a large donation of stamps to us. There are no cost implications for you. Once you have requested and received the box, you can fill it and then ask for us to pick it up from you if you are an organisation or business. For personal supporters the boxes can be dropped off at your local UPS, Hermes or DPD parcel shop, these are usually local convenience stores. Pre-paid labels will be emailed or posted to you when you contact us to say the box is ready.
Alternatively, you can post your stamps directly to the following address:
Xchange Masters Limited in aid of Pyjama Fairies
