Sue Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Just received this email so thought I would share this extract. I know it isn't just this charity who collects stamps, but I don't have the details of the others to hand. We would be very grateful if you could continue to send in stamps from Christmas cards etc on a regular basis. Do you realise that more stamps will be used over the Christmas period than the rest of the year.If you can, please save them up and send them to: Hearing Dogs For Deaf People P.O Box 6198 Leighton Buzzard Beds LU7 9XT. UK. With your help in 2010 we raised the fantastic sum of ?11,563.93 through used postage stamps alone. Hearing Dog 'Marti' is the sixth dog to be supported by funds raised from stamp recycling helping us to provide complete partnership support throughout Marti's whole working life.Marti is a cheeky Cocker Spaniel x Poodle who lives with Janice.The previous dogs fully supported by stamps alone were Becks, Penny, Womble, Flynn and Woody. All correspondence (membership renewal, monetary donations etc) should be sent to our headquarters.For economical reasons we cannot reply to all donations of stamps but please continue to send them on a regular basis.Please cut/ tear the stamps from the envelope leaving approximately 1/2 cm of paper around the stamp.Foreign stamps can be sent separately and marked clearly on the front of the package ?Foreign Stamps Only? as these generate a greater revenue.

The Scorpion Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Hi,Very worthy cause :)Can I please ask if (any kind of) old franked stamps can help with their funding, at any time of year, not just Christmas?Also, how do they help? (just wondering)I have lots of old, franked stamps from envelopes, and will donate, but just wondering how exactly they can be used to raise money?ThanksSue Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/20785-collect-your-stamps-for-hearing-dogs-for-the-deaf/#findComment-505355 Share on other sites More sharing options...
