Parents, carers and the wider Cupar and Howe of Fife community are being asked to sign up to a free scheme that helps raise funds for Bell Baxter High School every time you shop.

Bell Baxter High School’s parent council is calling on the community to support ‘Easyfundraising’, a website and app-based initiative that pays a percentage of each purchase to the school appeal.

The fundraising site partners with over 7,000 brands that donate part of what you spend to a cause of your choice. When you make a purchase, a commission is generated, and Easyfundraising turns that into a donation.

Starting to flow …

Already those who have signed up to www.easyfundraising.org.uk have raised almost £600 for the school’s parent council, and the committee hopes new sign-ups will help boost funds further.

Treasurer Nickie Joy says: “There are so many worthwhile initiatives going on in the school that benefit pupils and the local community. We also give all new S1 pupils a school tie as a gift and we are reliant on fundraising to cover our costs. Easyfundraising is a really simple way to support Bell Baxter High School without having to do much, just shop via the website or app when you are buying something. A total of 889 purchases have raised £591 in the last year … so it is worth doing!”

The school’s parent council also runs a Wellbeing 500 Club where for just £24 a year, people who sign up have the chance to win a monthly jackpot with half of all proceeds going to good causes in the school – including extra-curricular sports clubs, wellbeing events and breakfast clubs.
