Making a donation to Voluntary and Community Action, will enable us to better support local charities, voluntary organisations and community groups. The benefits of doing so include:

• a healthy, vibrant and independent voluntary and community sector enriches the life of all communities and adds value to what the public and private sectors can achieve;

• more effective, inclusive, well informed and diverse public services, community strategies and partnerships;

• more prevention of social, economic and environmental problems including crime, homelessness, drug abuse, unemployment and anti-social behaviour;

• more effective, inclusive, well informed and diverse neighbourhood renewal, rural development and regeneration;

• more participative, inclusive and cohesive civil society, for example through increased community involvement, volunteering, neighbourliness, arts, sport, advice and the sector’s representation role;

• an opportunity to work in partnership in a way that enables organisations to achieve their corporate and community involvement objectives.

Voluntary and Community Action's Donations Page

The above webpage has been set up on the Help Organisation's website (www.help.co.uk).

Help is registered in the UK (Company Registration No. 6009381) offering a premier fundraising, donation and sponsorship service to over 190,000 UK-registered charities, via their innovative new website.

The website allows registered charities to accept credit and debit card donations, without any set-up charges or monthly fees. Any donations made to our charity via the website, automatically generate a Gift Aid claim and the donation plus Gift Aid will then be forwarded to our organisation, minus a small administrative fee (for full details visit http://digbig.com/4xaey).
