FUNDRAISING

What do we do with our funds? A good example is our most recent project, which has been to convert this

...from a muddy bog into a fantastic new recreational facility for children of all ages in the area, including a ball court, two playgrounds and a wooded area (more details).

This is a great example of what we can do with the right support.

Please help us to continue to maintain our existing facilities, and develop new resources for our community. There are several ways that you can help raise money:

1. Make a donation

Use Paypal to make a donation directly into our account. This is quick and easy and just requires your credit card details.

If you prefer, you can make a Giftaid donation through your bank or by cheque. Download the form: Word document (36K) | RTF (212K)

2. Raise funds through ebay

Sgoil an Iochdair agus a'Choimhearsnachd has signed up with MissionFish and ebay, so that we can all raise funds for the development at Iochdar School. You can sell items on ebay and donate from 10% to 100% of the final sale price to the fund.

You can sell just about anything on ebay, so now would be a good time to clear out the cupboards and give it a try. If you are a bit of a novice, and would like us to handle the sale for you, let us know. Your funds raised this way can be 'gift-aided' so we get extra money from the tax man as well.

How does it work?

ebay has partnered with MissionFish, a non-profit service provider, to create the ebay for Charity fundraising programme, making it safe and easy for you to support us via ebay.

While listing an item on ebay you can choose to donate a percentage or all of your item's final selling price to us. Your item will feature a charity ribbon and the percentage you are donating so that buyers know that they are supporting a worthy cause.
