FUNDRAISING FOR KATS
It’s so easy…
KATS has joined a fundraising scheme called easyfundraising. It’s a simple online shopping platform that has been helping organisations, such as ourselves, since 2005 and gives cashback to good causes.
HOW IT WORKS
Whenever you buy anything online – from your weekly shop to your annual holiday – you could be raising free donations for Kingsbridge Amateur Theatrical Society (KATS) with easyfundraising.
There are over 7,000 brands on board ready to make a donation – including eBay, Argos, John Lewis, ASOS, Booking.com and M&S – and it won’t cost you a penny extra to help us raise funds.
ALL YOU NEED TO DO
Click here to join for free.
Every time you shop online, go to easyfundraising first to find the site you want and start shopping.
After you’ve checked out, the brand will make a donation to Kingsbridge Amateur Theatrical Society (KATS) at no extra cost to you whatsoever!
