We would like to remind everyone about the existence of EasyFundraising, the virtually effortless way of raising money for Hendon Football Club. After a very quick registration process, you can then go about your everyday shopping online, with hundreds of retailers and service providers taking part in the scheme. After the registration process, participating in EasyFundraising costs you absolutely no time or money. Instead, you merely continue to shop online as normal. Also - you no longer have to remember to click through the link on the HFC homepage either: by accepting the Donation Reminder function, you will be reminded about EasyFundraising every time you directly visit a participating website.

The EasyFundraising initiative has been around for most of the last ten years, raising a relatively modest £2,400 through the participation of around 90 supporters. HFC Supporters Trust Chairman Bryan Roberts commented: ‘To be absolutely honest, I had completely forgotten about it and I dread to think how much potential income that has cost the club. Having become reacquainted with the facility, I’m genuinely impressed by the improvements in the site and also in the expanded range of retailers and services that are taking part.’

The service now encompasses an extensive range of websites including e-commerce specialists (e.g. Amazon, eBay), travel and tourism (e.g. Expedia, BA, Virgin), department stores (such as John Lewis, Debenhams), fashion stores (e.g. Next, GAP), beauty retailers (Boots, Superdrug etc.), supermarkets (e.g. Sainsbury, Morrisons), DIY retailers and electricals retailers. Please explore the site to see the wealth of other options. Roberts added that ‘by taking part, and encouraging friends, family and colleagues to do the same, this initiative could fulfil its potential and become a significant income stream for the Club.’
