How to Help

Thank you Mark!

Our congratulations and thanks go to Mark Shaw, head of Queensway Primary School, for achieving an amazing time of 1 hour 36 mins in the Great North Run in aid of the Society. The picture on the right shows him nearing the end of the race. Thank you to all those who supported him, for the rest of you it’s not too late, just go to his fundraising page on the JustGiving website Website.

Annual Appeal 18th May 2008

Thank you to all those who gave so generously in our Annual Appeal on Sunday 18th May. Your support is vital, as we cannot carry out our work without your prayers, voluntary help and financial support.

Make a donation

We can not continue our work without donations from you, our supporters. The majority of our income is in the form of donations from individuals around the diocese. If people are able to donate regular amounts through their bank or building society it really helps us to plan ahead, please contact us for a form if you are able to do this. Alternatively if you just happen to have some money on this one occasion that you would like to give then download this one off donation now and return it to us.
The Catholic Children’s Society (Plymouth) do not solicit donations by phone, email or letter. If you would like to make a donation, please do so using the links.

Giving Online

You can give right now online using your credit card at www.justgiving.com.

Or if you have a charity account you can donate via the Charities Aid Foundation website at www.cafonline.org. You will be asked to search for our charity so type in Catholic Children’s Society (Plymouth), making sure that you do so exactly including all punctuation.

Become a Parish Representative

Would you consider being a Parish Representative? You’ll be our point of contact for publicity, and helping with our annual collections. These little tasks make a huge difference to the money we raise, and the care we’re then able to give. If you can help in this way, speak to your parish priest or send a message with our contact form.

Raise some funds!

Some people run coffee mornings or jumble sales for us. We desperately need your donations to help us provide our work across the diocese.

Make a bequest

Remembering the Society in your will is a gracious way of helping the next generation get the best start in life. It’s very simple, too. By remembering the Catholic Children’s Society (Plymouth) in your will, you can reduce your estate’s liability to Inheritance Tax, currently payable at 40% of the balance of your estate over the allowance (currently £312,000). If you have already made your will, it can simply be updated. If not, you may like to contact your solicitor, or ask the Society for a useful guide on making a bequest.

Pray for us

The Society is committed to working with and for all families and children, whatever their belief. But it takes inspiration for its work from a commitment to putting the Christian gospel into action.

Jesus said:

Unless you become like little children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.
