Online Shopping to Help Homeless

As part of their commitment to look at new and innovative ways of fundraising for the homeless people that they work with, and their commitment to bring new services to Friends and magazine readers, The Big Issue in the North Trust has just launched its new on-line charity shopping experience at http://www.buy.at/bigissueinthenorth

You can now buy a range of good quality items at competitive prices through your home computer whilst saving money and donating to The Big Issue in the North Trust. For each item purchased commission, of up to 10%, will be earned by The Big Issue in the North Trust. This is an excellent and contemporary way of using new technology to fundraise to help our homeless vendors and The Big Issue hopes their Friends will use the website for on-line shopping.

A partnership between the Trust and the cause related marketing company buy.at/ has made this possible. Only trustworthy merchants with secure, user friendly shopping sites are included and buy.at/ ensure that merchants offer a quality service that charities can safely promote to their members.
