Details:
A pot of £6000 has been allocated to Osiligi Charity Projects. To release this pot, we need you and others to donate a further £6000. For every £1 of donations, £1 will be released from the allocation. Thus your donation will be doubled £ for £ by the pot.
Donations to this charity can be made at any time between the above dates and time.
Once the £6000 pot is exhausted, you can still donate to this fundraising but your donation will not be doubled. We need £12,000 to build the next classroom. Any money above the £12,000 will buy classroom equipment.
We will add the money raised now to the £12,000 you donated in 2016 to build 2 classrooms in 2018.
Example donation:
Sally donates £50 with gift aid via the Christmas Challenge.
The charity receives £109 including the Gift Aid and money from the pledges. Note that as a comparison, if Sally’s donation was sent by cheque to the charity, we would receive £62.50 including the gift aid.
