Every penny you donate to us is used carefully and responsibly. We fund work with a demonstrable, positive impact on people’s lives, while keeping support costs to a minimum.
For every £1 it spends on fundraising, Shelter Scotland raises around £4.50.
Other places we get funding from include:
charitable foundations and trusts: for example, The Mercer’s Charitable Foundation, which funds a project to support ex-offenders after release, and the Big Lottery Fund, which supports homeless children via the Newham Education Project.
