Q1: |
If I buy a packet of cards from a
specific charity, does the money go back to that charity? |
A: |
Yes less a deduction to cover operating costs. Charities receive at least 79p in the £ from their card sales out of which they have to pay for the production and distribution of their Christmas cards and any VAT. |
Q2: |
Where does the money
from the sale of Christmas goods go? |
A: |
The profit from the sale of our advent calendars,
wrapping paper etc helps to offset the operating costs of the organisation. |
Q3: |
Are credit cards accepted
in your shops? |
A: |
Because of technical difficulties only our larger shops are
able to accept credit cards at this time. A list of these is given in the "Where
to Buy" section of this site.
|
Q4: |
How can I find my
nearest shop? |
A: |
There is a list of our sites in the Where to Buy section of
this website. Shops are listed by county with a Multimap link to show the location. You can also
phone Cards for Good Causes Head Office on 01264 361555 for details.

Q5: |
Do all shops have
the same charities? |
A: |
With a few exceptions cards for all 25 member charities and 3 national guest charities are sold in the majority of our shops. Depending on the space available shops
will also sell cards from other guest charities, varying from large national charities to small local
ones. Our smallest shops only sell cards on behalf of The 1959 Group of Charities. |
