The Pay it Forward Voucher Scheme CIO is a volunteer run registered charity whose aim it is to help people in need, either directly or through supported organisations via email or text, to buy their own food/groceries/toiletries/household items/pet products and children’s items. The scheme can only operate through the kind donations from the public via Justgiving or via bank transfer, as well as grants. Please click here for the latest list of supported organisations (started in Cambridge, but now in Bedford and Leicestershire, please contact me if your organisation would like to join)
It’s a way to show people in need that people do care about them.
