This competition is underway, £7000 is the top award again. Our action plan is at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eHSsSE-Yb9uIZO-L8k3jUStDJWPvUG_FixWUUrDoDAw/edit?usp=sharing

Suggested Admin to be sent out by groups to their members:

Dear Members

You may remember that last year there was a competition on Ebay with a top prize of £7000 for the winning charity. We are excited that this year Ebay are doing it all over again.

We have running costs of around £20,000 a year, but with no income other than member donations this prize would be a huge boost to our funds.

Please can we ask all of you who use Ebay to mark Freegle as your favourite charity, we are then in with a chance of winning some of the money Ebay are offering this year. It costs you no more than a few seconds of your time, just click the link and select ‘save as favourite’ - http://freegle.it/ebay

Unfortunately this is for 'new' favourites only, so if your favourite still showing as Freegle from last year, you can’t vote for us this time. Optimistically, though, if your vote is already showing Freegle as the favourite at the start of the competition, please unmark it so that you can use it again next year.

Thanks so much for your support, we really appreciate it.
