Volunteers' Week | Charity Shops Fundraising

Charity shops/fundraising

Often seen as the public face of volunteering, the profile of charity shops has increased significantly as the recession has bitten. Equally, charities and voluntary organisations are finding their funding squeezed as the economic outlook gets gloomier. The role of charity shops and fund raising activities has never been more important.
