myplanetcardThe Bateleurs is delighted to tell you that we are now a registered recipient of funds generated by the Woolworths MyPlanet programme.

The MyPlanet programme is a variation of the Woolworths MySchool programme (which has been in existence for some time and which secures funding specifically for South African schools).  The MyPlanet programme is specifically for the support of South African environmental and conservation not-for-profit organisations.

Any Bateleurs member or supporter can now apply for a MyPlanet card, to be swiped at the till with every purchase at any Woolworths store and other participating retailers.  Swiping your Bateleurs-linked MyPlanet card will ensure that a portion of the value of your purchase will reach our bank account.  The beauty of this approach is that it will cost you nothing at all.  You do not pay for the card and not one more cent is added to the cost of your purchases at Woolworths, but a (small) portion of the value of the goods in your shopping basket will be set aside by Woolworths for The Bateleurs. The challenge is to carry the card with you and to remember to present it when paying!

Please will you consider applying for your Bateleurs-MyPlanet card today – and please will you ask all your friends and relations and neighbours and colleagues and email and SMS contacts to do the same!   To make a meaningful contribution, Woolworths have advised that The Bateleurs should acquire a minimum of 2,000  active supporters.

The more people swiping cards at Woolworths for The Bateleurs, the more money we will have for the work we do, and the more work we have, the more missions we will be able to fly.

In these difficult times of corporate fund raising, this alternative strategy could play a critical role in helping to supplement our coffers - please actively spread the word. Woolworths are not able to provide us with a detailed contact list of all who have signed up so we will find it difficult to monitor and motivate our support base. If it is possible, and not too much trouble, it would be very useful if you could forward to The Bateleurs ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ) the contact details of any people you manage to 'sign up'. 

Please contact us if you have any queries about the MyPlanet programme as this applies to The Bateleurs.
