Comments from some of our users

 

"I cannot believe how easy it is to raise money using this site. I have earned £242 since I started shopping via the easyfundraising site and have saved hundreds of pounds by buying my insurance online.  I now look forward to my insurance renewals - cars, house and pet, so that I can see how much money I can save and raise money for the school in the process - what could be easier!!!!"

 

"I book flights at work and always go via this site, so far I have raised over £500."

 

"I have never bought insurance online before, but this was so easy, I rasied £45 for the school and saved over a hundred pounds on my renewal!"

 

"Christmas shopping online saves me time, queues and sore feet .  Last year I used the pricechecker on easyfundraising,  I could search for the items I needed and it told me which online shops sold the item - the added bonus, it told me which shops were selling it the cheapest!  I saved money and raised money for the school too."

Search the Web and Raise Funds

  

  

You can also raise funds when you search the Web - with easysearch, a search engine with a difference! 

  

 

When you search the Web with easysearch instead of Google or any other search engine, you’ll raise funds for us with every search you make! Just like easyfundraising it’s completely free to use and if you make just 10 searches a day, you could raise £20 a year - or more - for us, just by switching to easysearch.  

 

What’s more, easysearch is a 'super' search engine that combines the strengths of several search providers together - Yahoo!, MSN Windows Live Search, Ask.com and many more. easysearch tracks down the most relevant and accurate results from across the Web, which means you’ll find what you’re looking for quickly and easily every time - all in one ‘easy’ search. 

  

 

Check out our unique easysearch page at http://www.fogos.easysearch.org.uk

and use it every time you search the Web.

  

  

Referals

 

  

easyfundraising and easysearch are such simple and effective ways to raise funds, we’re sure you’ll want to spread the word. So why not tell other organisations about Easyfundraiasing and raise even more for the school with the fantastic Referral Programme!

  

Simply introduce the scheme to other organisations and easyfundraising will we'll pay us a 'lifetime' revenue share of 20% of whatever they raise, for as long as they use our service. Don’t worry- this won’t affect their fundraising total as easyfundraising pay the extra funds to us as a thank you.

  

So, if you refer another organisation that raises £500 through easyfundraising, they will receive £500 but we will also receive £100 - just for referring them!

  

To refer a new organisation all you need to do is ask them to use your unique referral link when they sign-up to easyfundraising. When they use this link to register, the system recognises this and automatically associates them to us.

  

There’s no limit to the amount of new organisations you can refer.  We have now referred  5 other organisations and have raised an extra £89.00 for doing absolutely nothing!

 

  

Our unique referral link is:

http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/referral/7063

  

Please tell as many organisations as possible; brownies, beavers, guides, cubs, other schools....infact any charity trying to raise funds.  Help them to raise money whilst supporting Great Ouseburn School.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you would like a one to one tutorial from a fogos member, please ask.  We can register you, show you how it works and find ways for you to save money too.  Whilst it can seem daunting using a new system, I guarantee it really is as the title suggests......
