Cash machines this summer in UK


If you go to the UK this summer and you need some cash and you want to give some charity go to a cash machine. This summer it is possible if you use a credit card or debit card you can give small amounts of charity between one pound and 250 pounds. The banks are able to choose whom they support and the people can choose to whom they want to give some money. Royal Bank of Scotland and independent Bank Machine will be the first but soon others will follow. This all is an initiative from the Government. They found it important to find new ways to support charitable and voluntary action. The Bank Machine has already received more than 500 registrations of charities.


I think this is a good initiative from the government. Now people are able to give directly a small amount to a voluntary organization of their choice.  Personally, I found it difficult to give to a voluntary organization because it is difficult to now what they exactly doing with your money. It is the same with a disaster fund. Of course you want to help the people in a country where just a big disaster has taken place, but you never now if the money is spent well and go directly to the people who need it.
