We have been in conversation with Helen and Serena to look at ways we may contribute to the costs of administration and other costs by asking folk to sponsor a part of the costs. For example if we spend £100 on item A in a month then a sponsor could regularly give £10 towards that cost. We have called this initiative “Sponsor a Paper Clip”.
At the Bonanza event we had a table in with a number of office items – a ream of paper – a box of pens – Internet connection etc with various amounts of cards with amounts of sponsorship on them – for example…. “I sponsored £1.00 to the costs of admin.”
Penny has already given £100 to the T21 budget for the sale of Basil plants.
Clive Wagner is taking photographs of St Giles which will be turned into postcards for sale.
(£5 for a pack of 10 postcards).
Elizabeth has made a CD of Worship songs for sale at £10 per CD.
Ali has asked folk to collect 901 pennies to mark 901 years of St Giles church.
