Impact Charity Shop

ASL Member Founding Member Post #14089 Replies closed

I have read of all the good work the Imapact Charity Shop is doing on behalf of Emaus. Is all money raised donated to Emaus or is it shared around to other charities? I am looking for a "people only" charity shop as I feel there are already enough hard-working groups on the urbanisation supporting animal causes. While I would never, ever hurt any animal or living thing, and not wishing to offend animal lovers, for me humans have to come first.

We at impact cover all areas, we cover animals,the children in EMAUS care homes and, we collect food for the needy in La Marina / San Fulgencio that is passed out by social services department.
Impact charity tops this basket up every month with 50 euros donation of food each month.
It seems you haven't been in to the shop as we have a huge basket full of food and this has been on going since December 2011.
Thank you for the comments.
I apologise for that, I didn't make it clear. We support PAWS, Finca lucendum, EMAUS.

As far as I am aware, The money raised by the Impact shop is used to help three groups.Emaus being the main one,if you want to donate to Emaus,a collection tin is placed on the counter of the shop specificially for Emaus donations.Impact make large donations to Emaus,and looks a very well run organisation.
Two others to look at,would be Paul Cunningham Nurses (who look after the elderly and infirm.Also think about the Feed the Needy which collects food etc. for the needy of San Fulgencio and La Marina Urbs.on the last one you should be able to get information from the Council Offices in calle madrid.
All three of these meet your requirements.
Also look around the bars like AJs and Hogs Head etc,who often run charity events,the advantage of them is you can really enjoy yourself whilst giving to others.
Best of Luck
