FUNDRAISING
The Cape Orchid Society has a strategic framework in place for fundraising and awareness raising. We raise funds and awareness for our conservation projects throughout the year and at all of our shows and events. Every cent raised through fundraising goes toward our conservation and culture efforts.
MySchool MyVillage My Planet Programme
The Cape Orchid Society has been registered as a MySchool MyVillage My Planet recipient. This is a great opportunity for some passive income generation for the Society. This rewards programme allocates a chosen beneficiary (the COS) a portion of the amount spent each month at Woolworths and other partner stores when you swipe your MySchool MyVillage MyPlanet card or linked Woolworths card. We are asking everyone with this card to add the COS to your list of beneficiaries (you can have three beneficiaries linked to a card) list so that we can raise some much-needed funds for the Society and our conservation efforts . Application forms will be available at all monthly meetings and COS events. To apply for a card or to add us as a beneficiary, click here.
Shows and Events
Our shows and events are key platforms from which we raise the visibility and brand of the COS as well as undertake key fundraising and awareness initiatives. For more information on our upcoming shows and events, click here.
