Cost has put off many charities from investing in their Web or e-mail marketing,
but it is still possible to reduce costs substantially by securing donated hosting
or Web design services.
Anti-Slavery International is the latest charity that we’ve
come across that has secured donated Web services. Their [Web site](http://www.antislavery.org/archive)
includes a thank you to “Visible Edge and Grapevine Internet Limited for donating
so much of their time, expertise and enthusiasm to the development of this website.”

Both Grapevine Internet and Visible Edge provided free time and effort to complete
the website redesign project for September 2000.

Many other charities have been similarly successful over the years. UK Fundraising
is happy to put together a brief list of examples to demonstrate this and to encourage
other charities to investigate this option. If you have secured free hosting, Web
site design, online marketing or other online fundraising-related services for free,
then let us know and we’ll consider adding them to this article. Contact [Howard Lake](https://www.fundraising.co.uk/mailto:hl***@************co.uk)
with the brief details. Don’t forget to include your Web address/URL so we can link
to your site.
