10% campaign
In May 2011 we launched a campaign to increase the proportion of our funding that comes from the generous gifts of our donors from 7% to 10%. We aim to raise £1 million in 2011-12, so this equates to £100,000 in total over the financial year.
Quarterly update: Q1, April - June 2011
At this stage of the year we would have expected £17,500 (7%) in donations, so at £22,846 (9%) we're making great progress towards our target. Thank you so much - there's still a long way to go, but with more heroic efforts from our supporters we'll reach it!
Quarterly update: Q2, July - Sept 2011
Thanks to your efforts we'd raised a staggering £40,287 (8%) by the end of September. We've also had a lot of new donors, so thank you to everyone who has become a QSA supporter since the campaign began.
Quarterly update: Q3, Oct - Dec 2011
Another successful quarter raised £61,214 (8.2%), but we will need a huge push in the final few months of the financial year if we are to reach our target. Please consider donating in the New Year.
Update: Feb 21st 2012
There is just over a month to go until the end of the financial year, and we've reached £75,812 towards the 10% campaign. Please help give our total one final push in the last few weeks of 2011/12.
The vital unrestricted income we receive from our supporters makes QSA the creative, independent charity that we are today, ensuring continuity of funding for our projects, as well as enabling us to innovate with services likes Knees Up and Made of Money.
Please join in with the campaign, by giving whatever you can. We'll be working extremely hard to raise another 90 pence for every 10 pence donated by you, so that together we can continue to give people tools to find routes out of poverty.
Please donate and like us on Facebook for updates on the campaign and the rest of our work.
