FUNDRAISING


Verity is almost entirely funded by through initiatives such as selling information packs, fundraising and donations. Other sources of funds Verity receives are from fundraising initiatives such as Amazon commission and Gift Aid (where we receive an extra 25% from the Government on certain monies).  Last financial year (2018-2019), our income was just £17.8k.

But… you can help Verity raise funds with very little effort!  The more income we have, the more work we are able to do and the more secure the Charity is.  

Learn more about why you should fundraise for us or find more ways to fundraise for us below.

​No matter what fundraising you are doing you can set up a JustGiving page to make donation collection easy and hassle free. Bake Sales, sponsored hair cuts and hair growth, runs and physical challenges, quizzes etc can all be made easier using JustGiving.

​Easy Fundraising is a website and app where you raise as you shop. By clicking through the Easy Fundraising link before you go shopping on your favourite website you ensure that the retailer will donate a percentage of the sale back to us.

eBay for Charity allows you to list items with a percentage of the sale being donated to us, super easy. You can also search specifically for items that are listed for particular charities - who knew shopping could be so altruistic?

If you shop on Amazon, clicking through from our website or using  smile.amazon.co.uk instead, means the charity you choose to suppport receives 0.5% of you purchases. At the moment this does not work on thier mobile app.

Give as you Live Online is another website that allows you to raise money for charity whilst doing your online shopping. Clicking through from the Give as you Live link means that the retailer will donate some money back to us and it includes things like train and theatre tickets too.

Thrift+ is the online charity shop where you can donate unwanted clothing and have a good rummage. You choose a charity for each donated bag who the proceeds will go to and you can retain some of the money to use yourself against items that you purchase on their website.

 If you have a Paypal account you can donate to us directly via the PayPal Giving Fund page. We receive 100% of your donated funds approx 15-45 days after they are made. You can add Gift Aid and you can claim a tax receipt via email.
