JustGiving: Parley Common and Beyond By Atul Srivastava - Fundraising Coordinator
We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who has donated so far on our JustGiving page to raise funds towards ARC’s land purchase at Parley Common in Dorset. ARC became the proud new owners in June. We have raised over £151,000 so far through a combination of offline and online donations, and the page will remain open for donations: www.justgiving.com/campaign/

ParleyCommon
Beyond the fundraising campaign for Parley Common, ARC’s JustGiving account will remain active so volunteer fundraisers can easily set up a page linked to ours:
www.justgiving.com/amphibianandreptile
You are welcome to fundraise for ARC in any way you wish, such as sponsored runs, sponsored hops dressed as frogs, or perhaps even going for an amphibian or reptile related world record!
By the end of 2021 we are looking for 10 volunteer fundraisers to have raised £1,000 each from their networks, including friends, family and company matched donations. The combined £10,000 would make a major difference to amphibians and reptiles, as well as other species that share similar habitats.
ARC Guardians
By Atul Srivastava - Fundraising Coordinator
ARC Guardians is our major giving club for individuals who are able and willing to donate £5,000 or more per year of unrestricted or core funding for ARC.
Unrestricted donations are usually smaller than restricted grants for specific projects. However, increasing our unrestricted donations is essential for multiple reasons, such as flexibility, funding staff in gaps between project funding, and enabling ARC to gradually expand its impact.
The first ARC Guardian joined the club in June 2020, making a major contribution to the financial sustainability of the charity. If you or someone you know are able and willing to join, find out more at: www.arc-trust.org/arc-guardians or email: guardians@arc-trust.org.
