Car rental comparison site Carrentals.co.uk is to hold a series of ‘Book & Donate’
days this Spring, on which it will donate £1 for every booking made on its site 
to StreetSmart, the campaign which raises funds for over 90 homeless charities in
19 cities across the UK. The first event takes place on 11 January.

Gareth Robinson, Managing Director of Carrentals.co.uk, said; “This is the first
of our ‘Book & Donate’ days, with the next one planned for the 25th January, and
then on a number of dates through February and March. For every booking made on 
each ‘Book & Donate’ day we will donate £1, so it won’t cost our customers anything
to help raise funds.”

Carrentals.co.uk helped StreetSmart last months with its 12 days of Christmas’ giveaway.
The company donated the total cost of the prizes it gave away to StreetSmart.

The main [StreetSmart](http://www.streetsmart.org.uk) campaign runs every November
and December with restaurants across the UK (including famous names such as Nobu,
Dinner by Heston Blumenthal and Restaurant Gordon Ramsay) opting to add a voluntary
£1 donation to the bottom of each table bill.

Since its launch in 1998, StreetSmart has raised and distributed over £4.7 million
to support a range of work including education and training initiatives, supported
housing and health issues.
