easyfundraising Spin to Win is back for Easter

Fundraising website easyfundraising is giving your voluntary organisation, charity, or CIC the chance to win up to £50 every day between 4 – 17 April 2022 – just by spinning the wheel!

Last November we ran a really popular ‘Spin to Win’ competition where our causes could win between 10p and £50 each day just by spinning the wheel. Our good causes enjoyed it so much that we have brought it back for Easter! 🐰 🐰

When anyone connected to your organisation Spins the Wheel, they could win you anything from 10p – £50 every day.  

To take part, your organisation needs to register with easyfundraising first – as well as being able to play Spin to Win, your organisation can also access free funding from thousands of online retailers, through the easyfundraising platform.
