Localgiving scoops Charity Times Awards for impactful partnership with National Grid and Roshni Birmingham.
"We are over the moon to have won a Charity Times Award, particularly given the very high calibre of projects in our category and across the night as a whole – it was a privilege to be among such wonderful causes and organisations."
Community Story: Women Connect First
"The Warm Hubs and seminars provide practical steps in providing inclusive and supportive sessions that will help the women manage their energy consumption effectively. The warm hub provides a warm and safe space with a healthy meal, bringing people together and combats loneliness and isolation, so it’s a really important part of community during the Winter months."
Building effective strategies for fundraising and donor engagement
This session on 25th March will include key steps to research and set out the best way forward for your organisation, focusing on the value of planning ahead and key steps along the way. We will also take to consider the best way of a receiving donations, with a particular focus on Direct Debits, which we see as key to building successful long-term funding.
"If it were not for supporters like yourself providing financial aid in the form of grants and ongoing contributions, we would simply not be able to run our charity and enable our vital and much-needed work to continue. For this, we offer our deepest gratitude."
Down Syndrome Development Trust
Charity of the month - Havens Community Hub
Urgent appeal this month! The Havens Community Hub creates projects to meet unmet community need and runs a small community centre in Denton, East Sussex to support residents living between Saltdean and Seaford (The Havens) and the surrounding areas. They support other local good causes, charities and individual campaigners to become sustainable - in many cases, helping to prevent closure - and partner with other organisations to best offer community services. And they need your help!
"Localgiving has been fantastic in providing a capable online fundraising platform that is easy to setup, user friendly and allows us to claim Gift Aid. It has also meant we’ve had access to extra fundraising opportunities and grants such as Magic Little Grants and more recently the National Grid community fund."
