5th Petts Wood Scout Group are lucky to have an active fundraising committee that supports the group by organising a number of events throughout the year. The committee is staffed by parent volunteers and raises much-needed funds to keep the subscriptions paid by parents and carers as low as possible, so please offer to help if you can.<\/p>\n

The money raised goes towards activities, new camping equipment, and the maintenance and running costs of the group’s two minibuses.<\/p>\n

Ways in which you can help<\/h5>\n
    \n
  1. Support the events being run by the fundraising committee, either through donations or offers of help on the day<\/li>\n
  2. Gift-aid your membership fee. The group can claim back up to 20% of the membership fee from HMRC, but only if a tax-payer in the household pays the membership fee AND completes the online gift-aid form<\/li>\n
  3. Shop online. The group raises money through\u00a0Give-as-you-live<\/a>, an online fundraising platform which gives the group a percentage of the cost of a purchase made through over 4000 online retailers<\/li>\n
  4. Match funding through your employer. Many companies run match funding\/community cashback schemes where employees are actively encouraged to become involved in community projects, by offering to match or contribute to funds that are raised.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If you are able to help or have suggestions or queries then please contact the fundraising committee at\u00a0fundraising@5thpettswood.org.uk<\/a><\/p>\n
