Fundraising & Supporting Us

Easy Fundraising

Published by admin (12:50:05 18th Oct, 2010)

We have now registered with www.easyfundraising.org.uk and you, your family and friends can help support us easily and without any cost!....it’s so easy and your donation can really make a huge difference to the resources and services we provide to children and adults with disabilities.

Please take time to see how it works and pass it on...

How it works

Easy fundraising site provides a FREE service where you can shop with your favourite online stores and at no extra cost whilst raising funds for our charity. You still shop directly with each retailer as you would normally, but simply by using the links from this (www.easyfundraising.org.uk) site first, each purchase you make will generate a cash back donation to our cause.

For example, spend £25 with WH Smith and 3.5% will be donated. You will have raised £0.88, at no extra cost to your purchase. Make any purchase from Amazon and 2.5% will be donated. Insure your car with Direct Line and raise £35.00, or purchase a mobile phone from O2 and earn £17.50, and so on.

You can shop with 2000+ Brand Name retailers and to raise funds you just use the links from the site first - it's that simple!

If you ALREADY shop online, why not help good causes at no extra cost from purchases you would make anyway.

Why do retailers support your fundraising?

It seems very generous, but when you buy online the cost to the retailer is much lower. As there's no shop, salesperson, heating, electricity, rates, not even the cost of the bag to put your goods in, retailers are more than happy to help good causes when new online customers are introduced to them via our website. Please note that your chosen good cause receives 100% of the donation. E.g. the donation rate for M&S is 5% of all spend, so your chosen good cause will receive 5p for every £1 spent.
________________________________________

Will I pay anything extra?

No. You pay the same prices exactly as if you visited each retailer's website directly. Using our service will not cost you a penny more than you would pay normally.

________________________________________

How much can I raise?

Up to 15% of every purchase is donated, depending on which retailer you select and what you buy. The exact donation that will be paid is displayed directly next to each retailer listing. With some categories such as mobile phones and insurance there is a cash value. If a retailer offers more than one donation, or if there is any special information about the retailer, please click the image
________________________________________

Am I dealing with the retailer or with easy fundraising?

You still deal directly with each retailer. We simply record your visit to their website and reward your selected cause if you make any purchases.

Save money

Many retailers give exclusive 'Internet-only' discounts, special offers and even money saving 'eVouchers' to members, so as well as raising funds, you can also use our site to save money.
