About easyfundraising:
easyfundraising is a simple way for your organisation to raise extra funds from everyday online shopping. When your community shops with over 8,000 retailers through easyfundraising, the retailer makes a donation to your organisation — at no extra cost to anyone. From a weekly grocery shop to booking a holiday, it all helps generate free donations.

Donations are paid to you every three months, and because they’re unrestricted, you can spend the money on whatever your organisation needs most. Register for free funding with easyfundraising here https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/southend/
