What do other churches think?
easyfundraising does exactly what it says on the tin - allows another way of raising money for the church that is very easy and straightforward. The link was able to be shared via e mail and our social media pages. It's quick to set up, I'd totally recommend it to any church to use.
Rev. Tracy - St Leonard's Langho
We would highly recommend easyfundraising because it is easy to use and provides additional money for the church without any cost to the donors. Although we are only a small congregation, we have already raised £758! easyfundraising provides a way to donate through online purchases that you would make anyway. The only difference is that you access the company that you wish to purchase from via the easyfundraising portal. They also have a reminder so that if you start to make a purchase online without realising that it is part of the scheme, easyfundraising will alert you.
Joan - St Laurence Church, Falmer
It's an easy and simple way to raise money just by doing what you were going to do anyway, i.e., make a purchase! I definitely would recommend this to other churches because so much is bought online these days and this is a great way of benefitting a charity without it costing extra. There is also no real effort required by the church after the initial set up, and each quarter a sum of money is paid into your church bank account.
Lorraine - Christchurch Baptist Church
In simple terms, Easy Fundraising is FREE money. No events to plan, no begging bowl in hand, a surprise reward for simply going about your everyday. Congregations are falling and times are hard, and we cannot keep asking for people to dig deeper into their own pockets.
Diana - St Bartholomew's Church Cresswell
Really easy to use and is so beneficial to do as it supports the church. Using the app is simple to navigate and takes you straight to the website you are purchasing items from! Highly recommend!
Rebecca - St Mary's Church Newport
I certainly would recommend easyfundraising. We are a very small rural congregation, and easyfundraising has generated over £200 so far. Its really simple - the church signs up and then,every time a church member shops online, money appears your church account!
Tony - St Marks - Ninebanks and Holy Trinity
