Participants are then asked to donate £ 3 via text. ## Advertisement   This is the first time the two charities have worked together, and funds raised will be split between both, to help support their work.   CoppaFeel founder and CEO Kris Hallenga said:   > “I am excited to get this fun campaign out there and I am happy Ellie’s Friends > approached us for this great partnership. We all know someone with cancer, and > it’s time to show what we all think of it, in the form of a big fat raspberry.”   https://twitter.com/Shirl_twirls/status/811167417409929216       > Blow a [#raspberrytocancer](https://twitter.com/hashtag/raspberrytocancer?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) > in aid of [@elliesfriends](https://twitter.com/ElliesFriends?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) > and [@coppafeelpeople](https://twitter.com/CoppaFeelPeople?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)! > Give £3 by texting RASPBERRY to 70300.
