Ways to support our fundraising efforts:
Everyclick
Consider using everyclick as your search engine. Every time you search with everyclick using the link, they donate 1p to us. Between August 2006 and September 2009 our supporters who had been clicking with everyclick added around £600, which is enough to sustain our website and forum pages for more than four weeks . It costs users nothing at all from their own pockets, so please do give it a go and click with everyclick, as it really does help. Why not visit everyclick now and then send the URL to your friends and family and ask them to make our portal to everyclick something they use regularly as well?
eBay
If you buy and sell on eBay, you can choose to donate a percentage of your sale to us. Just remember to complete the donation instruction on the sale template when you set up your sale.
Charity greeting cards
Send an E-Greeting Card instead of a paper one and support us. We work in partnership with CharityGreetings. If you send egreeting cards, the e-card you send results in a donation being passed on to us. Check out what they have to offer here.
Spend and Raise
Shop though our shopping page at Spend and Raise and we receive a percentage to help support us here, at no extra cost to you. If you shop on-line you can really help to make a difference to us. Find out how here .
Give as you Live
Download Give as you Live™ and shop online at all your favourite stores. The stores pay back commission on anything you buy, at no cost to you. Give as you Live then send that commission to us if you have chosen us as your charity.
You can shop via the Give as you Live store or download Give as you Live™ and raise money when you shop directly at your favourite online stores. They’ll even send you offers from your favourite brands. You can even create a wish list so friends and family can see what you’d like and if they buy it from a linked supplier, then they donate to your charity too.
Give and Celebrate
Some of our supporters have chosen to ask for donations to the Trust in lieu of, for example, wedding, birthday and christening presents. If it’s a gift, please consider Gift Share through our partners or simply set up a fundraising page and ask people to donate to that in lieu of your special event. We use Virgin Money Giving for these generous donations. If you need more information, please contact us.
Give as you earn (GAYE)
To join Give As You Earn your employer will need to be running a scheme. Our bank, CAF Bank, will help you find out if your employer is already running a scheme and if not, will even approach them to set one up.
Gifting in wills
This is called legacy giving. If you would like to find out more about leaving money to the Trust in your Will, please contact us.
