UFO Fundraising Foundation
UFO recognises the importance of actively contributing to charitable causes and that a small effort from each Member can make a big impact to those in need. Obviously, there is no obligation for any Member to take part in the fundraising. We simply want to present the opportunity for those who want to participate.
"At each meeting, we raise funds and carefully select the recipient each year as we really want our money to make a difference. We are aware that many organisations survive solely through charitable donations and they can’t help others without people helping them." Rachel Crawford, UFO President/CEO
