Fundraising partners
easyfundraising
Choose from 7,000 of the UK’s best-known brands, and when you shop online, using the links from the easyfundraising site, a percentage of the purchase is donated to FOSOSF by the retailer. You still shop directly with each retailer as you would normally, but, and very importantly, by using the links from the easyfundraising site FIRST, each purchase you make will generate a cashback donation. You can register using our link above. The page above has details on how to sign up, as well as links to a donation reminder browser extension and the easyfundraising app.

Who we are
Friends of St Oswald's School Fulford (FOSOSF) is a registered charity (charity number 1084129). We are made up of a committee of parent and carer volunteers who work with the school to raise funds which enhance the children’s school experience and foster the community spirit that surrounds our amazing school.
What we do
We run a number of events and sales throughout the year. Details of upcoming events are sent out via newsletters, and posted on school noticeboards, our website and Facebook group. The money raised from all our activities is spent in ways which directly benefit the children, such as buying equipment or paying for school trip coach hire. Recent investments include donations towards a new sensory room and the Little Wandle phonics system.
Fancy getting involved?
We rely on help from our parent and carer community to make all of this possible, whether that’s by supporting our events, donating uniform or joining our committee. Everyone is welcome at all our meetings. Please do come along if you’re interested in getting involved. We’re a very friendly bunch and there’s never any pressure to do more than you feel comfortable with.
