“Volunteering at the shop gives me a real sense of purpose — it’s my way of giving something back to the causes I care about. It’s only a few hours a week, but the impact goes so much further.”
Volunteer, York
“I never expected volunteering to build my confidence so much — it’s helped me find my voice again. Every shift I learn something new. I feel more confident talking to people and being part of a team.”
Volunteer, Exeter
“It feels good to know I’m part of something bigger — every card sold is supporting someone in need. We may just be selling cards, but we’re also making a real difference to charities across the UK.”
Volunteer, Guildford
“Being appreciated, even with a thank you and a smile, makes it all worthwhile. Volunteering has helped my mental health more than I imagined. It gives me structure, connection, and something to look forward to.”
Volunteer, Chichester
“Cards for Good Causes have worked collaboratively with us at Surrey Choices to provide meaningful volunteer placements for some of our customers who have learning difficulties and/or autism, allowing them to gain transferrable employability skills to take with them in to the world of work. We look forward to working with Cards for Good Causes in the future, providing a unique opportunity for some of our customers.”

“Volunteering with CFGC is more than just helping out — it’s being part of something that brings real joy to people’s lives. You get to meet others, support great causes, and feel proud knowing every card sold helps make a difference across the UK.”
