Fundraising through shopping!

Easyfundraising

 

Shop Online, Raise Funds (at no extra cost!) and get Great Deals and Discounts

 
"It works in a similar way to nectar, when you shop you raise a donation for your cause. It's as simple as that! 

You can raise FREE donations for us every time you shop online. Over 4,000 shops – including eBay, Argos, John Lewis, ASOS, Booking.com and M&S – and sites will donate to us when you use easyfundraising to shop with them – at no extra cost to yourself!

These donations really mount up and make a BIG difference to us, so we’d really appreciate it if you could take a moment to sign up and support us. It only takes a moment. 

It’s completely FREE to register and you won’t pay a penny more for your shopping when you use the easyfundraising site. In fact you can even SAVE MONEY as many retailers offer discounts, special offers and even 'e-vouchers' exclusive to easyfundraising.

If you shop online anyway then why not raise valuable extra funds for us by using this fantastic scheme. All you need to do is visit https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/chestnutlinton/?invite=2LV9JG&referral-campaign=s2s and when you register, select Chestnut Playgroup, Linton as the organisation you wish to support.  At the moment using this link could earn Chestnut Playgroup a bonus £5. 

Then, everytime you want to shop online, log onto your easyfundraising account first, select the shop you want and order your goods as normal.  easyfundraising will automatically link your purchase and donate the money to playgroup. We just see the donation amount on our account so all purchase information is confidential.

Our Committee

 

The Committee are the management team of the playgroup; acting as employer for the staff, promoting and supporting the playgroup through PR, fundraising and events, managing the financial accounts, managing admissions, and ensuring that above all, we meet the legal and regulatory requirements for the playgroup. Our Committee is supported by our Administrator.

We are a voluntary group of parents and carers who either have children currently attending, that have previously attended or our due to attend the playgroup.  Everyone brings their own set of skills and ideas. Committee members can be mums, dads, grandparents, or carers, but can also be people from the local community who have an interest in the playgroup. We welcome new members at any time of the year. You can join as a general member or volunteer to be a part of our fundraising team, and help out with events where possible. We meet once every half term for a committee meeting. Please feel free to join us at any meeting to see what the committee entails.

 

You can contact the committee by sending your enquiry through the 'Contact Us' section of this website, or by sending an email to chestnutplaygrouplinton@gmail.com, or for events on chestnutfundraising@gmail.com.  

Alternatively, you can write to us at the playgroup address.  Please mark the envelope 'For the attention of the Committee'.
