What the Clubs Say about Fundrazor.com

• ‘The opportunities that Fundrazor.com gives to recreational sports clubs are fantastic. We have raised over £2k and I can’t think of a better and more productive way of bringing in money for your club’

Steve Silk Chippenham CC, Gloucestershire

• ‘Harlow Town CC saw a great opportunity to combine a fundraising event with a really good night out. We have raised a considerable amount of money in the process and I would therefore recommend Fundrazor.com to any cricket club’

Paul Morrell, Harlow Town CC, Essex

• 'The money we have raised has helped us buy training and warm up kit for all our teams. This is definitely a service we will continue to use and look forward to attending new events in the future.‘

Andy Humphreys, Chairman Sheffield United CC, South Yorkshire

• 'Fundrazor.com should easily net any club over £1500 a year with the minimum of effort and the potential grows as they add more fundraising ideas to their portfolio'
