There are easier ways to raise money than doing a parachute jump

• Ebay

Ebay for Charity allows you to list an item on eBay and donate 10-100% of your final sale price to us – it’s that easy. To learn more about how you can support charities on Ebay, visit www.ebay.co.uk/charity

This is a fantastic opportunity to raise money for the QNI just by shopping online! Retailers will donate a percentage of every sale to the QNI. This doesn’t make any difference to the price you pay.  If you like the convenience of shopping online and would like to use one of the thousands of trusted UK retailers, why not raise money for The QNI at the same time, at no extra cost to you?

Simply visit www.easyfundraising.org.uk  and register The Queen’s Nursing Institute as your charity of choice. You can then follow the links to all your favourite stores and a percentage of the money you spend will be donated to the charity.

• Give as you Live

Raise free donations for the QNI just by shopping online! Give as you Live is free to sign up to and use, you pay exactly the same price for products as a normal shopper buying direct from the retailer. The only difference is that Give as you Live users raise free donations for charity. Go to www.giveasyoulive.com to find out more.

• Payroll Giving

You can make a monthly donation to the QNI from your salary through Payroll Giving. Payroll Giving is tax-free. It enables you to give to charity straight from your gross salary or pension before tax is deducted.

Your HR department may already have a payroll giving scheme. If so, all you need to do is complete a pledge form and submit it to them. If your HR department does not have a scheme, please contact them for advice. The Charities Aid Foundation offers a useful service.

• Paypal

We can also receive donations through the PayPal Mobile App for Android and iPhone by using the new Donate function. Donations are received by PayPal Giving Fund and then delivered direct to us.

The PayPal App is available on iPhone and Android mobile devices and can be downloaded from: paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/mobile-apps
