Little Hiccups is proud to announce that we are now a Registered Charity! Our official Charity Number is 1170147.
We’re very pleased with this news as its been a long hard slog to get here. Here’s what our gaining this number can mean to you:
1) It gives us authenticity. We know that you know that all our money raised goes straight back into Little Hiccups and in particular the fun events that we hold ever month. But those people that have not yet heard of us might not know. With a Charity Registration we are required to report back to the Charity Commission – so everyone knows where the money goes.
2) We can apply for a lot more grants and different sources of funding. Due to the above reason, we now have access to a lot more funding streams – which means more fun for you guys in the future. Now is your opportunity to tell us what you’ve always wanted your children to have the opportunity to do and we’ll see if we can make it possible!
3) We are now eligible to register with organisations such as Google for Nonprofits, eBay for Charity and seethedifference.org
4) You lovely people can also help us fundraise. We’ve had so many kind offers from people who say that their work is willing to fundraise for us and it will be matched by the business to double the amount. BUT they will need a Charity Number….well – now we have one!
It truly is a fantastic opportunity for Little Hiccups and is a step towards our big plans for the future. We’re really very excited about what 2017 is going to bring for us. And we couldn’t do it without all you lovely people supporting us. Thank you!
