Please donate to SWVG
SWVG relies on donations. Please encourage your friends to make a regular donation. Download the Standing Order/Gift Aid form here. This form can be used by all donors. Fill it in and email it to Treasurer@swvg-refugees.org.uk or by post to the Treasurer, SWVG, PO Box 1615, Southampton, SO17 3WF. The Treasurer then makes a record and forwards the form to your bank for processing.
If you do not pay income tax in the UK, just leave the Gift Aid section blank.
If you have set up the Standing Order with your bank using internet banking, please note that on the form or in the email.
You can also donate via Just Giving.
SWVG can receive money from Easy Fundraising, if you nominate SWVG as the charity you want to support. Easy Fundraising works with a wide range of online services. More information at https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/?hero-variant=1
Gifts from Trusts and Foundations
The SWVG Fundraising Group raises money for SWVG by applying to trusts and charitable foundations.
They welcome new members. They would also welcome suggestions of potential funders, and they’d love to hear from you if you have links with any funding bodies to which SWVG might apply for funds. They need help with contacting trustees or employees of trusts, or people in influential positions. If you have any contacts who might be useful, please get in touch – it could make a huge difference. Hazel Inskip hazel.inskip@swvg-refugees.org.uk and Sue Turner sueturner7@gmail.com.
