Supporting local charities

As well as working with national charities, we’re proud to support a number of guest charities each year, which tend to be smaller, local charities. Through our network of pop-up charity Christmas shops, we offer guest charities the opportunity to raise both funds and awareness during the festive season. 

How does it work?

Guest charities supply our shops with their own charity Christmas cards, which we sell on their behalf. It’s a simple model that brings real benefits:

  • Reach new customers and supporters in the local community

  • Raise the charity profile through promotion in our shops and on our website

  • Benefit from our experience – as a not-for-profit retailer, we understand the charity Christmas card market

  • Volunteering opportunities in the local community

If your charity is interested in becoming a guest charity do please contact us at charity.support@cfgc.org.uk
