Every pound you donate in the next 7-days can be worth double - how?
A philanthropist has contacted us this week and has offered to make a single substantial donation on the criteria laid out below:
That his money be used to 'fund-match' a maximum of half of the existing April shortfall - worth some £32,500 at present.
That this offer is valid for 7-days from today and closes at midnight on Friday - 19th April.
On this basis, he will double any online donation or funding share between now and then to his maximum funding limit.
This way, he hopes we can clear this month's target and be well ahead of funding; being another step along the road to the full season and that we can also continue the next steps in feasibility of the Flying Life Extension programme.
This is especially valid, as the current trend of approximately £2,000 a day will leave us some £25,000 short of our existing needs without this very kind offer.
We would like to thank the individual (who wishes to remain anonymous) most sincerely for this very generous gesture that clearly sets us a challenge we hope you can help maximise to the full potential. Thank you for any support you can give.
Any online donation made during the next 7 days will be 'fund-matched' and effectively
turns £1 into £2, a £5 donation into £10 and a £25 share actually worth double - £50 towards helping XH558.
There are just two ways that can be counted easily in terms of our record keeping:
Online donation via E-Donate
using a card or Paypal
Online donation with the support of
a funding share in vital activities
Due to the processing time before we see the money in our account, we are not going to include text or postal donations in this campaign, although of course, we will still welcome them if that is your preferred option.
General merchandise sales in our web store are also not included in this offer of fund-matching.
It's the online systems that we can see straight away that count - allowing easy doubling of the figures added to our funding gauge each and every evening. So, can you help us?
