George Abbot School’s PTA in Burpham have raised over £18,000 to date – all through people doing their online shopping via easyfundraising

Wood End PTA have raised a little under half of their ambitious £50,000 target for a new resource centre.
-
Belleville Primary School PTA have managed to raise over £9,500 for their students so far!
Like many good causes across the UK, these schools and PTAs rely heavily on fundraising to supplement strapped school budgets.
Getting started is simple: just visit the easyfundraising website or download the app and find a charity or good cause you’d like to support. Then choose who you want to shop with from the 8,000 on the platform – click out to them, make a purchase and a cashback donation is raised at no extra cost to you.
James Moir, CEO of easyfundraising, says: “In recent years, sky high inflation and the cost-of-living crisis has hit schools and PTAs worse than most. With so many strapped for cash to provide books, uniforms and more to their students, it's no wonder PTA groups are one of our most popular supporter groups.
“Many parents across the country are getting involved with easyfundraising to generate free microdonations for their children’s school. We’re urging parents looking to support their schools and PTAs to get started and make their shopping mean more through the platform. With Halloween, Black Friday and Christmas coming up, the opportunity is huge!”
