The African Wedding List joins existing services that include The Alternative Wedding List and The Green Wedding List. Andy Hickey of Give It said: “our themed services, such as our Scottish and London gift lists, continue to generate interest and we wanted to give couples even more reasons to say ‘yes’ to having a charity wedding list either on its own or, more commonly, alongside a traditional gift list.” Give It say that when a guest selects a donation on any of the wedding lists, “the charity will get 100% of their spend”. ## Advertisement [⌊Posthub advert.

In addition, donations to charities working overseas have always been popular on The Alternative Wedding List. Charities that will start benefiting from The African Wedding List include Street Child Africa and AfriKids. They appear alongside charities that have been involved with Give It for some time, such as Save the Children, Sight Savers International, and War on Want. www.giveit.co.uk * **[Marks & Spencer joins easyfundraising's network of online shops](https://fundraising.co.uk/2009/10/15/marks-amp-spencer-joins-easyfundraising039s-network-online-shops/)**( 15 October 2009) * **[Raise funds with Twitter by promoting Amazon items](https://fundraising.co.uk/2009/11/05/raise-funds-twitter-promoting-amazon-items/)**( 5 November 2009) * **[Online bookshop service shares 50% of profits](https://fundraising.co.uk/2009/11/23/online-bookshop-service-shares-50-profits/)**( 23 November 2009)
