Shop4Charity approached us a while ago to see if we were interested in signing up with them.
At the time this happened we were still a very young charity and were still learning on the job.
It was still surprising to us when companies got in touch to help us. The fact that they had heard about us and wanted to help us was so amazing.
Once we had read all about the company we were happy to get involved.
Below is the release we put together to advertise the venture.
"The Leeds Based Charlies Angels Centre has teamed up with Shop4Charity to create a fundraising opportunity for the charity.
Charlies-Angel-Centre is here to help and support anyone affected by the death of a baby or child, in as many ways as we possibly can.
Our website will always continue to be a main focus as a valuable resource for families after a child's death, but as time has moved on Charlies-Angel-Centre has grown too, and we now
do so much work behind the scenes to improve bereavement care for parents and families who have lost there child.
Shop4Charity is a website set up to raise funds for good causes with over 20,000 gifts, many of which are licensed and include some of the worlds biggest brands such as Disney, Warner Bros and one of the biggest selections of football related products.
Every sale makes a minimum of 10% for the charity.
Ruth Curtis from the Charity had this to say about the new partnership "We think it is a lovely thing that Adam is doing, and a great way to give back to the community. The website is a lovely thing to do, and that is the kind of people we want to work with because it's all about
working with people and giving something back.
Adam is very keen on helping other people, which is something you don't see much of today.
It's nice to find someone that wants to help.
Hopefully, we want to raise as much funds as we can to help our charity and to promote what we're doing.
From this partnership, we hope to spread the word of what we're doing and help the families that need it most."
Adam Maddock from Shop4CharityUK said "We have already raised substantial sums for other charities and believe this is one of the quickest and easiest ways to donate to charity whilst finding a perfect gift for yourself or others.
We are honoured to help this cause and really hope we can help raise as much funds as possible for them to meet their goals." Do your shopping and help the charity on http://charlies-angel-centre.shop4charity.co.uk/
Please spread the word to all your friend about this site and help us to raise as much money as we can.
We still get blown away by the people who want to help us and bereaved families.
Every penny raised goes straight into the funds to provide the support, friendship and hope we give to bereaved parents and their families.
Thank you all for the support you continue to show to us it really does make a difference.
