Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Income from event sponsorship makes up more than a quarter of The M.A.’s £200,000 annual budget, so every penny of your sponsorship will really make a difference.  What’s more, if you are a UK taxpayer and Gift Aid whatever you give, you’re adding another 25% to the charity without it costing you a thing.

 

 

Miscarriage can be a really unhappy and frightening experience.

Some of you will know that from personal experience and sadly some of us do and have had cause to seek the support of the Miscarriage Association in the past.  

 

The Miscarriage Association makes a real difference

They provide support and information when it’s most needed - and we want to help them continue doing that for others in this situation.

 

 

Take a look at the figures and see what your money can do:

 

 

£5 pays for sending out a pack of 5 information leaflets on miscarriage facts and feelings

 

£17 pays for helpline support and a leaflet pack for one person

 

£20 means staff can send leaflet packs to four people

 

£36 will staff the helpline for an hour (responding to 2 to 4 requests for help)

 

£50 pays for one hour’s outreach costs, telling 10 nurses, midwives or doctors about The M.A.

 

£100 will enable The M.A. to train a new support volunteer

 

£250 pays for a training session for GPs or hospital doctors

 

£500 means they can send leaflet packs to 100 people

 

£1,000 will cover the cost of researching, writing and producing a new information leaflet

 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
