Keeping it simple
Simple – you decide to become Xmas Party Heroes, then choose a charity from our charities page and click their logo to donate via our donations partner Just Giving. They will add your donation to the cumulative total we will be sharing. Alternatively, you can donate directly to any charity you choose, and then let us know your pledge amount. We also have a mobile app donations partner Thinking of You - where clicking their log takes you to a download for their app (whether iOS or Android phone) and you can choose one of their 75+ charities to donate to. They will then inform us to update the total raised. Please note: We do not accept funds, nor do we want to suggest where you should donate to. We simply want to influence as much charitable giving as possible and to showcase the total anonymously.
Please spread the word to your employer, friends, network, and use our hashtags and pages liberally.
You can direct them to this website, or our Linkedin page or Twitter channels. Alternatively, get the relevant person to email hello@xmaspartyheroes.co.uk and we can help them to choose a charity and how to tell the world they’ve just made all their staff #XmasPartyHeroes
Yes of course! There are many businesses supporting us who have also promised their teams they will do something when regulations permit. It is the unused portion of the budget we are suggesting should be donated to charity.
There are downloadable marketing materials on our homepage for charities to use to promote the idea to their corporate partners. All we ask is that if donations come to the charity directly (i.e. not via our partners Just Giving or Thinking of You) that the charity should then tell us the amount so we can add it to our total. Our mobile donations partner, Thinking of You, is not able to add any new charities to their app at present.
No, we are not a charity, We are simply a movement looking to ensure these unspent party and entertaining budgets are put to charitable use.
We are here to support all charities and do not have one chosen partner. Companies and individuals can choose any charity they want, we are not restrictive or prescriptive.
No. All donations go directly from the donor to the charity of their choice. The Founder Partners are substantial donors and are funding all the costs of Xmas Party Heroes.
No, we don’t take any administration fee or percentage of the donations. All donations go directly to the charities. The Founder Partners are substantial donors and are funding all the costs of Xmas Party Heroes.
Of course. The cumulative donations total that we report will be anonymous, as some donors don’t want any publicity for their generosity. Other donors are happy to be named, but don't want to brag about the amount publicly. Whatever works for you. Just let us know you've donated so we can update our total.
We’ll love you forever for donating to any charity you choose, but we have listed some charities on our website who are using the Xmas Party Heroes campaign to raise donations for themselves. Just click on the charity's logo you'd like to donate to.
You'll be taken to our campaign page on the Just Giving website where you can donate directly to your chosen charity. If the charity you picked is not on Just Giving, their logo will direct you to their own donations page. You can also donate directly to other charities using the Thinking of You app, the place where charities benefit more, where there are over 80 charities to choose from. Visit www.thinkingofyouapp.com to download the app.
Xmas Party Heroes does not take any admin fee or percentage of any donations made.
