Why our childminders LOVE using easyfundraising!
Claire
ClaireyPoppins, raised £574
"I'm always ordering from Amazon and The Works for my childminding business. I simply go through easy fundraising before making my purchase and earn some extra spending.... that easy! I collected up my last funds and this helped towards buying new uniform for the children to wear at my setting. I highly recommend this. Thank you easyfundraising!"
Vicki
Bradworthy Pre-School, raised £1932
"easyfundraising has helped us invest in our outdoor space. The children used to get frustrated when they could hear tractors, farm machinery, trucks and motorbikes going past, so we have put our recent easyfundraising donations towards having port holes in our fence!"
