Care2Save Pop Up Charity Boutique

Online charity shopping portal, Care2Save, is all set to open a pop up boutique in Soho – central London, next week to demonstrate just how much you can raise for charity whilst you shop – and at no extra cost for you.

For one day only (Tuesday, 7 October 2014), the pop up boutique will give shoppers a taster of the six million products available on the Care2Save website, from over 2,000 high street retailers: from Topshop to Travelodge, Halfords to House of Fraser.

Care2Save is the only shopping website run by a registered charity (1151546) and the only one to give 100% of the commission generated from your purchase to charity.

Every product in the pop up shop will be labelled with a price tag, so you can clearly see how Care2Save works and where your money goes.

So, for example, if you buy an Expedia holiday costing £899, Expedia will give three point five per cent commission (£31.46) to charity. Eighty per cent (£25.16) goes to a charity selected of your choice and the remaining 20 per cent (£6.29) goes to the Care2Save Charitable Trust to support hospice and palliative care. That’s how easy it is!

And, for every hour that the shop is open, those who come in and register will be entered into a prize draw to win £100. One person per hour will receive a £50 voucher to spend with any of the 2,000 retailers on the Care2Save website and that will be matched with a further £50 to donate to their chosen charity.

Care2Save is the only shopping website through which 100% of the commission from each purchase is retained within the charity sector - making it the only website of its kind. The commission is split into two; 80 per cent goes to a registered charity of the shopper’s choice enabling them to help their chosen charity in the UK and the remaining 20 per cent goes to the Care2Save Charitable Trust, which supports hospice and palliative care in the UK and globally.

Care2Save works with a host of high street names across every retail sector, including: ao.com, Bench, BHS, Boots, Currys, Debenhams, Disney Store, Early Learning Centre, EE, Expedia, feelunique, Furniture Village, Groupon, Halfords, Hotels.com. House of Fraser, Interflora, Marks and Spencer, O2, Sports Direct, Superdry UK, Tesco, Topman,, The Body Shop, thetrainline, Travelodge, Very.co.uk, Virgin Trains, Waitrose, Wallis and Waterstones.
