Happy Shopping! 

Please watch our school's EasyFundraising video to see how you can get involved!

What is easyfundraising?

The principle of the easyfundraising scheme is that a large number of well-known on-line retailers will pay money to the school on the back of purchases made.

You simply pay the same amount to the retailer as you would if you were purchasing items through their on-line site and the retailer pays a commission to the school.

How does it work?

You can operate it through a laptop or desktop PC using the easyfundraising website or via the app on mobile phones, tablets or iPads.

You can use our school’s unique QR code to help find the website or app and to help get set up, it only takes a minute or two.

When you first download the app, you should register your details and nominate your chosen cause i.e. Ballymoney Model IPS

Within the app itself you will see a list of retailers that are affiliated to the scheme e.g.  Amazon, Dominoes, Sports Direct, Boots, Booking.com, Expedia, Boden, M&S, House of Fraser, Argos, LEGO,  to name but a few.

The key is to go into on-line app of these retailers through the easyfundraising app.

The easyfundraising app will take you directly to the site you need or to shopping apps you already have downloaded, like Amazon, which helps to save time when shopping online.

Each donation may seem small but soon funds add up! 

What a good time to get involved!

As you prepare for the Christmas rush there could not be a better time to think about signing up.

What a fantastic way to support the financial wellbeing of our school at no cost to yourself!

Many thanks for your interest and support, it really is appreciated.
