Get a share of £1m in funding this summer
This summer, over £1million will be donated to churches and good causes across Norfolk and the rest of the UK. Your church can get a share by signing up to the easyfundraising platform.
Through this free to use website, thousands of online retailers will donate money to your church when you and congregation and clergy shop with them. Retailers include Tesco, trainline, eBay, Argos, Just East, Sainsbury’s, John Lewis, Asda, Booking.com and 8,000 others.
Here’s an example: Parishioner Chris is taking his family on a day out by train. Instead of visiting the Trainline website, Chris heads to easyfundraising’s website first and clicks on the Trainline link. easyfundraising directs Chris to Trainline, where he books his tickets. Because Chris started at easyfundraising, your church gets a monetary donation from Trainline, at no extra cost to Chris.

What do other churches think?
‘We would absolutely recommend it to other churches! It’s such an easy way to raise much needed funds. Since joining, we’ve raised over £2,400 - without one person spending an additional penny.” Director of Youth Ministry Georgia, St Elizabeth’s of Portugal.
In May, £1.5million in unrestricted funding was donated to good causes through easyfundraising. Your church can be part of the next funding pay out in August by setting up your free easyfundraising page today. Find out more at: https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/east-anglia/
