Charity campaign calendar relaunched
Howard Lake | 8 August 2006 | News
The Count Me In Calendar, which lists charity campaigns, has been re-launched with a re-design and three new calendars covering environmental events, charity challenges and multi-faith celebrations.
The site now offers listings, profiles and detailed information about all major UK charity awareness and fundraising campaigns; environmental workshops, campaigns, conferences, festivals and working holidays; UK and international charity challenge events; and multi-faith religious celebrations together with hundreds of national country days.
The Count Me In Calendar is free to users and charities, and is supported by advertising revenue.

Formerly sponsored by The Whitbread Charitable Trust, the calendar won the CAF Innovation – Corporate Community Investment with a difference Award in 2004.
The new site now includes links to GuideStar UK profiling all the featured charities, sector news stories, and RSS feeds from the calendar homepages.
Gareth Jenkins, founder and editor of the Count Me In Calendar, said: “The new site design has the same navigation as the original, so our thousands of regular users will find everything very familiar. However with three new calendars and more on the way, there is now a huge amount of additional content to be explored.
“The new site still offers free listings for charities, which is vital to ensure that we continue to offer the most comprehensive coverage of charity events anywhere.”
