Raising Valuable Funds
Since launching in 2007 Unity has generated over £70,000 in profit for charities running a Unity Lottery.
Unity is appealing to many different charities as it offers a risk free way to fundraise. Many charities are suffering from the effects of the recession, the public may not be able to donate as much money and as regularly as they may have previously done so.
Supporters who may not feel they are able to donate on a regular basis may be more inclined to join a lottery as they have a chance of winning a prize whilst also helping their chosen charity.
Unity has given away over £22,000 in prizes and the odds of winning a prize are 1 in 63.

Unity Grows Again
|
The Paul Sartori Foundation becomes the latest in a long line of charities to understand the potential earning power of Unity. The Paul Sartori Foundation was started in 1985. The Hospice Home Care Service started with only 6 carers. As the years progressed the Foundation expanded the team to include Registered Nurses. We now employ a home care team of around 40 nurses and carers around Pembrokeshire. They are employed on an as needed basis, dictated by patient demand, to provide palliative care where treatment has switched from cure to relief of symptoms. If you wish to join the Paul Sartori foundation lottery please click the logo above or to find out more information about the Paul Sartori Foundation please visit www.paulsartori.wales.org |

Bobath Children’s Therapy Centre, and Hospice at Home West Cumbria are benefiting from having a consistent weekly income. Even after reaching this amazing total the two charities will not be sitting back and relaxing, and I'm sure all of them will be pushing for the £5000 mark over the coming months. |

Congratulations to the two charities, and good luck for your future fundraising. Unity is growing every week, so I am sure that these two won't be the last to reach the £1000 mark. |
