How do you raise money for charity?
Friends At Rest raises money for charity by charging a token amount to light candles or add gifts to tributes.
We track which tribute has generated money and for which charity.
For every $10 we raise, we donate $6 to the nominated charity (the remaining $4 goes towards the costs associated with running the site - we are non-profit making).
It is incredibly important to us that Friends At Rest not only comforts the bereaved but also serves to help the wider community.
Thank you, on behalf of all those who benefit, for your generosity and kindness.
