Sounds too good to be true? It's not.
When you shop online, the cost to the retailer is much lower then if they sold you the same item through a shop. They want to encourage you to do it.
As a result, dozens of household name retailers (the same ones that you would probably be using anyway) and hundreds of smaller businesses have already signed up to internet shopping donation schemes, whereby they agree to pass on a percentage of this saving to a fundraising cause nominated by the shopper.
So whether you're fundraising for a registered charity, school, church or community group, or even a sponsored event, by buying the same product from the same retailer for the same price that you would have done anyway, you could still ensure a donation is made to your cause.
All you have to do is register with an online shopping website that has a fundraising agreement with the retailer (this is sometimes called a "partner" or a "portal" website) and your fundraising will start automatically. The more people you can persuade to do the same, the more money you will raise.
