STUDENTS on a work placement scheme in a Darlington factory have enlisted six schools in a fundraising exercise.
Each year, university undergraduates who spend a year at Cummins arrange a charity appeal.
The team is organising a non-uniform day at town schools.
North Road, Firthmoor, Dodmire and Red Hall primary schools, Hurworth School and students from Haughton will take part.
Five of the schools will hold the days on May 25. Hurworth School pupils raise money on July 20.
Half of the money will go towards school funds and the rest will go to the Children's Foundation, which is one of Cummins' charities for the year.
The team hopes to raise about £1,500.
