Charity Logistics today launched a free Internet access service
for UK charities and their supporters. Charityvfree.com is a partnership between
Charity Logistics, the charity that helps other charities achieve their objects 
effectively, efficiently and economically, and Voss Net plc, the Internet Access
Provider.

Charityvfree is available with no sign up fee, no hourly charges, no subscription
charge, unlimited access, multiple e-mail accounts, 15Mb free Web space, and local
call rate. In case you were wondering, the help line for subscribers is also available
at local rate, unlike some other recent entrants to the free Internet account market.

More significantly, Charityvfree offers a method of raising funds for participating
charities. Voss Net is giving a share of the local call cost, incurred while people
are online, to the user’s chosen charity via Charity Logistics. UK Fundraising’s
Howard Lake was at the launch to hear Charity Logistics claim this as “a World first
for the UK” and a “charity Internet revolution”.

Voss Net and Charity Logistics were joined at the launch in London’s Millbank by
Margaret Moran MP on behalf of the Parliamentary IT Committee.
