What do other local groups think?
I cannot help but recommend easyfundraising to all groups. It is such an easy way to raise funds. With easyfundraising the people you buy from online give a donation to your organisation, all for you doing what you normally do. RSPB Macclesfield have raised over £1000 by this method.
Derek B, RPSB Macclesfield Local Group
Do it! I have been pleasantly surprised at how easy it is, and how many different companies support the scheme. It has been difficult to raise funds since Lockdown / Covid and so this has helped our funds.
Lynn B, RPSB Brighton Local Group
We have been very pleased with how easy it was to set up an account and how the money is already accumulating. I would certainly recommend easyfundraising to other RSPB groups. It’s a very easy way of raising funds for our work. There are many well-known shops in the scheme, and it doesn’t cost our members any extra to shop online in this way.
Penny, RSPB Aberdeen
