Advice please - how to donate money to someone for charity

Hi everyone


My friend is currently in Cambodia doing volunteer work for a kids residential centre. She is the only Occupational Therapist there and desperately needs funds to help make the place better, the kids have holes in clothes, no shoes, no toothbrushes etc etc - I am going to do an appeal over here with all my friends and work colleagues etc, but I need some way to get the money donated across to her.


I looked at JustGiving and it looks like only registered charities can do it (they're not one), and something called Yimby but it all takes a cut of the money, plus with Yimby you only get 30 days to raise the funds. Does anyone have any ideas (other than me literally giving out her account details and people transferring cash to her - which understandably I don't think people would be too happy with), that we could try? I am probably being dim and overlooking something very simple!!


Thanks

    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw   
    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
    • > however I know I will have to prove it and provide a receipt,  both I can't provide. So what leads you to say that the dustmen have done damage to it?
