Ways to help

If you would like to support our charity and the Licking Lassa Fever Project there are several ways to do so, some without any cost to yourselves. These are:

Recycle your jewellery

Broken, old, unloved jewellery (from costume jewellery to diamond tiaras – watches, chains, beads, gold, silver) we can recycle these and raise money for our charity. This has been our most successful fundraiser so far. If you have any you would like to donate please contact us using the contact form at the foor of this page. Let us know where you are geographically and the quantity (Wt) so that we can get in touch and agree the best way to receive it.

Recycle inkjet cartridges and mobile phones

Empty inkjet cartridges (NOT ink-wells, any make, nor Epson or Kodak inkjets) and mobile phones (NOT chargers or earphones) and iPODs – We have several sites and will prospect for the best return. Please use the contact form at the foot of this page so that we can arrange collection.

Register on the search engine www.everyclick.com for our charity, then each time you sign on and use the service you will earn money for us. There are also opportunities on the site to donate using secure technology – they will also reclaim GiftAid for us if you agree for them to do so. In addition you can launch an appeal and collect sponsorship to benefit us.

Go to http://www.buy.at/LLF and when you transfer to sellers through this site – well known companies and high street names – and buy from the retailer’s main site, we receive a commission whilst the price remains the same as if you went direct.

Ebay

You can buy or sell on e-bay and benefit Licking Lassa Fever.eBay for Charity is the dedicated programme for charity listings on eBay.

When you buy items marked with the charity icon , part or all of your purchase will support a certified charity.

Any eBay seller who has a current account in good standing can create an eBay for Charity listing. There are two types of sellers:

1. eBay Community Seller: Individual eBay sellers who want to donate 10% to 100% (5% for eBay Motors vehicle sales) of their final sale price to a registered charity. Learn about selling for eBay for Charity.
2. Charity Direct Seller: Registered charities can sell their own items on eBay and collect 100% of their final sale price. Charity Direct Sellers create their eBay for Charity listings with the same selling forms as a Community Seller. Learn more about Charity Direct Selling.
