Funding opportunity – diversifying your income

8 Jul 2021 - 14:54 by michelle.foster

easyfundraisingThrough our partnership with funding website easyfundraising, 43 groups, voluntary organisations and charities are now benefitting from extra funding. If you are looking for ways to diversify your income, this is something your organisation can also get involved in.

It’s a simple idea – well-known retailers, like Amazon, eBay, Argos, John Lewis, Trainline, Booking.com, Currys, Aviva, Waitrose and Sainsbury’s, will send your organisation cashback donations when your volunteers, staff and supporters use the free easyfundraising website to shop with them.

With people shopping online more these days, this is an easy way to boost your income. An average online shopper could raise around £25 per year so multiply that by the number of people that could use easyfundraising to support you to get an idea of how much you could benefit from in free funding.

Every 3 months easyfundraising will total up all the donations your supporters have raised through their shopping and send them to you – you can put the funds towards a particular project; or simply keep for a rainy day.
