Fundraisers
Usually everything we receive from pay-as-you-feel donations gets reinvested right back into our project. But we feel like we should pay some of that generosity forward to the many amazing, likeminded charities fighting worthy causes. About once a month, we choose a cause and hold a ‘theme week’ and send all our pay-as-you-feel earnings directly to a partner charity doing good work in that space. Past fundraisers include the Disaster Emergency Committee for Ukraine War relief, and the London Churches Refugee Fund for refugees in London. Check out our Calendar for what’s up next.
