Cards For Good Causes Opens Its Christmas Pop-Up Shop In Putney


Friday 1st November to Wednesday 18th December from 10.00am to 5.00pm

Cards for Good Causes – which sells Christmas cards for more than 24 national and local charities – opens its latest pop-up shop on 1st November 2013 at St Mary’sx Church, Putney.

Volunteer Shop Manager, Angela Holman said: “Not only are Christmas cards an important source of funding for charities, they also help to raise awareness of their work. By popping into the Putney shop, you can choose from a fantastic array of charity cards and stock up on all your Christmas essentials, such as wrapping paper and gift tags. You’ll find us by following our distinctive triangular red Santa sign in Putney High Street.”

Cards for Good Causes Limited (CFGC) pays the participating charities (or their trading subsidiaries) at least 70p in every pound from their card sales, less the VAT payable on the amount retained by CFGC. The retained amount covers CFGC’s costs of running the temporary charity Christmas card shops. In addition to these costs, the participants have to pay for the production and distribution of their cards.

Staffed by local volunteers, the Putney pop-up shop is part of the Cards for Good Causes’ national network. It is open Friday 1st November to Wednesday 18th December from 10.00am to 5.00pm
