A new opportunity for charities ..
At this time the charitable sector face some real challenges, With the credit crunch people have smaller disposable incomes so are less willing to give regularly. Many donations are cash and therefore not tax efficient. And with Gift-Aid being worth less since 2008, charities must find new ways to fill the gap. But don’t worry, Ecomodo can help.
We provide a wealth of new opportunities for all registered charities and it will cost you nothing.
Fundraising
Ecomodo delivers a no hassle method of fundraising. Our service allows your supporters to act as channels for frequent everyday donations. Lenders can choose to donate their hire fees to a charity of their choice. The charity receives the funds that would otherwise have gone to the Lender.

Get equipped to make a difference and save money
Whatever you do to make a difference you will need things to help you achieve your goals. Instead of wasting money purchasing items, use Ecomodo to source the things you need directly from your local community and borrow them just for the time you need them. Alternatively you may need specialised skills or just a helping hand. Simply post a wanted ad on Ecomodo to tell your local community what you need and get the job done at a low or no cost.
By searching the local resources nearby, you may also be inspired to do new types of projects, sparked by the opportunities around you.
Create a lending circle for your staff and volunteers or with other local organisations to pool your resources and promote your circle as a great way for everyone to save money. And by adding items you are happy to share with others on Ecomodo keeps them visible and helps everyone stay mindful of the opportunities nearby.
Pool your assets
Existing groups such as neighbourhoods, workplaces and organisations form the basis of lending circles on ecomodo.
Your organisation can set up a circle
to provide a way for your members, recipients, volunteers and staff, to pool their assets (objects, skills and spaces) so they can lend and borrow from each as well as other members of Ecomodo if they choose. Find out more about circles
Raise your profile
For every Lender who chooses to donate their proceeds to your good cause they are expressing their support for you. This is a powerful way of raising your profile directly amongst their circles and peer groups.
Be green
In today’s society, every organisation should seek to lessen its impact on the environment. By using your network to promote Ecomodo for your own benefits, your organisation will be actively contributing to reduce our collective effect on the environment.
Register your charity
Ecomodo gives the Lender the ability to make donations to any registered charity in the most tax efficient way.
To receive donations, you will need to register your charity with Ecomodo.
