Team Collection Box Totals for March 2015
We are very pleased to announce our March 2015 month end collection box figures, with £112.29 collected, against £198.70 for March 2014. The total so far for 2015 is £735.12 compared with £578.43 for the same period in 2014.
We currently have 115x collection boxes out and about in the team’s operational area and with a small number of individual supporters, and we take this opportunity to thank them – and their customers – for their marvellous support.
We continue to feel that there is tremendous scope to increase the number of boxes we have out in the local community we serve, and to this end we are ever grateful to ‘The Bolton News’ for regular articles requesting its readership to support us.
Our ‘target’ figure remains to increase the number of boxes we have out and about to 150x and in this respect we are continuing to appeal to our wide readership to help us find thirty-five new sites including considering hosting a box at their workplace.
So here’s the continuing challenge to all our current 2,484 Twitter followers and 989 Facebook friends, if only a tiny number of our friends and supporters out there in ‘social media land’ could also find a new site within our primary operational area, then we’d soon get to that 150 x Collection box total.
If you feel you can kindly help us in this way please contact us via the addresses given within the ‘contacts’ section of our website.
We offer our sincere thanks to all who so kindly host a box and of course to the large number of supporters who contribute to so regularly filling up all our boxes out and about.
All our boxes are regularly emptied with all sites thanked and acknowledged each time a box is emptied.
Additionally at each year end, all sites who have generated over £50.00 but under £100.00 receive a laminated Certificate of Thanks.
Those sites who have raised over £100.00 in the year receive a Team Plaque when reached for the first time, and then in subsequent years a Framed Certificate of Thanks.
