The Giving Machine
Just fourteen of our supporters have raised over £140 for
Through the Roof at no cost to themselves, simply by
doing their online shopping through The Giving Machine.
It’s easy to join in and to help raise much more.
If you’d like to find out how:
• go to the Giving Machine’s home page
(www.thegivingmachine.co.uk)
• search for and nominate Through the Roof as your
chosen charity
• register as a giver (you need to give them a name,
email address, and create a password)
Then, whenever you want to make an online purchase, first
sign in to The Giving Machine, search for the item or shop
you want, click through to it from the link provided by The
Giving Machine and make your purchase as normal. That’s all
there is to it. The retailers you buy from will then donate part
of the purchase price to us. It all adds up, and it’s an easy way
to help support Through the Roof.
