Fundraising Standards

Fundraising Standards Board
Childreach International is a member of the Fundraising Standards Board (FRSB) scheme. The FRSB is the only self-regulating scheme for charities in the UK. They are supported by the Welsh Assembly, the Scottish Government and the Office of the Third Sector. The scheme runs to increase donor confidence by increasing transparency in fundraising and encouraging high fundraising standards amongst charities.

For more information on the FRSB please visit http://www.givewithconfidence.org.uk/

As a member of the FRSB scheme, Childreach International is committed to maintaining complete transparency and the highest standards of fundraising. Across the entire spectrum of revenue we ensure that every penny is raised in a responsible manner. We provide training and support for all our fundraisers and to ensure that your money is being collected in a responsible manner issue the following to every individual that has been trained with us:
  • A distinctive yellow branded Childreach t-shirt.
  • A letter of authorisation, direct from the charity.
  • A label name badge that is worn on the individuals chest.

If you see someone collecting for us without all three of the above, they are not genuine and we urge you to take their name and inform us immediately.

For more information on our commitment to the FRSB scheme please contact us on fundraising@childreach.org.uk or read more in our FRSB factsheet.
