You can access the full Code of Fundraising Practice by following this link.
Our platform only supports fundraising for registered charities. Any funds raised through your fundraising page are passed directly to charities on a rolling monthly basis. We do not offer a service for peer-to-peer or crowdfunding. On this basis, you acknowledge that funds received from your supporters will be passed in full to your nominated charity.
If you are raising money for a specific charity appeal, (for example, specifically for a new church roof, rather than for the church charity in general), you must:
If you are taking part in an event where the charity is covering some of your expenses, the amount designated for your own expenses must be stated in your fundraising activity description. This ensures your supporters know exactly how much the charity will receive to support its work and how much covers the expenses it must meet to enable you to fundraise.
An example might be an overseas expedition to raise money for a charity. You set a target of £5,000 on your fundraising page. In return for your fundraising efforts, the charity covers the cost of the expedition flights and accommodation. You must specify exactly how much the charity is contributing to your own expenses from the £5,000 which your supporters donate.
The following text will be added automatically at the end of your fundraising activity description so that your supporters understand what happens if your target isn’t reached or if it is exceeded.
All funds raised will be passed to the charity irrespective of whether my target is reached, not reached or exceeded.
We do not support offline fundraising on the Wonderful platform. You understand and agree that any offline fundraising activities you undertake to support activities described on your Wonderful fundraising page must also comply with the Code of Fundraising Practice.
If you have any questions about Wonderful’s fee-free model, please don’t hesitate to contact us via the Helpdesk.
