Do you shop online? Even those of us who’d rather visit a shop in person have recently had to settle for trawling the web for our supplies.

This is a season in which many of us are facing tight budgets and financial uncertainty, curbing our ability to give to charity.

But the good news is that it’s possible for your precious funds to contribute to the work of the Genesis Trust in the course of your usual shopping, without it costing you a penny!

There are now several websites, some available as an app, through which you can do your usual shopping from a vast choice of familiar retailers (M&S, Sainsbury’s, Ebay, JustEat, Apple, JD Sports to name but a teeny sample). The joy of it is that if you do this, having selected Genesis Trust as your chosen charity, a percentage of your spend will come to us. There is no catch – you simply have to sign up to whichever website you’ve chosen.

The amount we receive varies from company to company. Percentages are small, but just imagine, if everyone who supported Genesis did this, it would soon start to add up!
