Make It A Meaningful Donation

So many ways to help raise funds and profile!

We continue to seek ways to raise the Society’s profile, educate more people about CP, and attract more supporters and donors – please consider how you can help us to do that, as we work to diversify our revenue sources. This will enable us to become self-sustaining in a very few years. Just as importantly, increased funds will allow us to do more for our members!

Make it a meaningful celebration

People often make gifts to the CP Society in memory of a loved one who has died. Making a donation in honour of other “milestones” is also meaningful. Many of us have more “things” than we possibly need, so please consider this option when deciding what to do for someone’s special occasion. A number of “gifts in honour” …of a birthday, anniversary, etc can really add up – and help the Society to do more for its members.

Please help us open more doors ….

… to corporates which offer a payroll giving programme. The Society would love to come and speak to them, to educate staff about CP and the work of the Society, and to invite them to add us to their payroll giving programme. If you can help us get our foot in any door, that would be brilliant – whether it’s your own employer’s or someone else’s. An opportunity to educate people about CP can really make a difference in raising both our profile and funds to deliver our programmes and services.

Golf Tournament? Quiz Night? Other Fun events on the horizon?

If you know of any upcoming ones that don’t yet have a charity to support, please direct us to them – these 3rd party events can be a great boost to the CP Society – and raise both funds and awareness. We will of course provide support to the event, including one of our CP team to speak at it.

Gifts in Wills Programme

As you will have read in our last Review, our Gifts in Wills programme is up and running. Brochures have now been distributed to public trusts and to many law firms throughout New Zealand. We have more available if you’d like a copy or two: just contact us at cp@cpsociety.org.nz or sue@cpsociety.org – if you wish to learn more about how a gift in a will can have a significant impact on what we do here, please get in touch – our free phone # is 0800 503 603.
