JGHS Parent Council - Easy Fundraising

Do you shop online? The JGHS Parent Council has just registered with Easyfundraising so that every time you shop online you can raise funds for the school AT NO COST TO YOU.

You can access over 2,700 well known retailers, including Amazon, John Lewis, eBay, Boden, Sainsbury's and loads of insurance, travel and service companies through Easyfundraising, and they will donate a small percentage of what you spend to JGHS Parent Council to say thank you for shopping with them.

It's a really simple process, all you have to do is:

Go to www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/jghsparentcouncil

Register as a supporter
Get shopping - it couldn't be easier!

Easyfundraising now has a comparison page and a "find and remind" facility to ensure you never miss the chance to give money to the school.

Please bookmark the site, and in the run up to Christmas especially, remember to click through and make a donation to improve the educational experience for all our children.
