New fundraising idea at Carlton

Carlton Town Football Club have signed up with www.easyfundraising.org.uk, an innovative website where thousands of people are raising money for charities and organizations every time they shop.

With British shoppers set to spend a staggering £39 billion online this year alone, James Willcocks from Carlton Town Football Club is keen for as many people as possible to sign up:

“In the current financial climate we know that every penny counts so we’re not asking people to donate, just to shop online as they normally would. Almost all of us shop online these days so what could be easier than raising funds simply by making the purchases you make anyway?”
So how does it work?

You shop directly with the retailer as you would normally, but if you sign up to http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/carltontownfootballclub for free and use the links on the easyfundraising site to take you to the retailer, then a percentage of whatever you spend comes directly to us at no extra cost to yourself.

How much can you raise?

Spend £100 with M&S online or Amazon and you raise £2.50 for us. £100 with WH Smith puts £2.00 in our pocket and so on. There's over 2,000 retailers on their site, and some of the donations can be as much as 15% of your purchase.

easyfundraising is FREE to use plus you'll get access to hundreds of exclusive offers, discounts and voucher codes, so not only will you be helping us, you’ll be saving money yourself.

Featuring over 2000 of the UK’s most popular retailers including M&S, Argos, Boden, Tesco and many more, easyfundraising has already raised helped UK charities raise over £3 million.
