JanNominate Post Pals for funds
Hello, Waitrose have a scheme in place where every month they share £1000 between 3 good causes nominated by members of the public.
I’ve nominated us to my local branch (Cobham) but was hoping that some of our volunteers might nominate us to theirs. All you need to do is go into the store and ask at the ‘welcome desk’ for a community funding form. The form has 3 small sections, for name of project, why your nominating it and contact details. You then drop it back in to the welcome desk and cross your fingers!
It is meant for local projects but I know national charities have also benefitted. I would suggest mentioning you volunteer for it (or your child benefits from it/a local Pal benefits from it), and maybe paperclipping a poster or leaflet to it.
Every month they choose 3 projects and then shoppers are given a token to put in the slot of their chosen project. £1000 is then shared out depending on how many tokens have been given etc.
It could be a really simple way for us to boost our income. The more money we have, the more post we can send – it really does make a difference. Just this week, thanks to donations, we have been able to send fun kids books out (selected from a list by the parents so we know the child will like it), and next week they will be receiving fiberoptic finger lights. With 120 children though costs soon add up.
The form took me about 2 minutes to fill in, it is that short!
Thank you!
