Dear *|FNAME|*,
As this year is nearing its end, Malcolm and I are updating all our records, including those concerning our finances.
We see that so far you have not updated your standing order form which is needed because of CAF closing our account and the requirement to transfer membership to our new account at Lloyds bank. Unfortunately, this new instruction can only be initiated by you and does not automatically happen when accounts are moved from one bank to another. To our alarm, we found that our income decreased by £627 during October because of the missing funds from standing orders not yet activated by our members.
Good news is that new standing orders can easily be set up online. Simply go to the standing order section of your online bank account and fill out the form indicating whether you prefer to pay monthly or annually.
Our details are: sort code 30-99-50 and account number 61603263
Our fee structure is: £3/month – for students and unwaged £7/month £80/annual
Every penny counts so if you can give more, that is much appreciated. However, we also realize that some people are experiencing an economic squeeze which is seriously straining their finances. If you find yourself in this position, we will understand if you must withdraw your support at this time, hoping you can rejoin us later when your situation improves.
Lastly, we also know that due to Israel’s continued attacks on Gaza and its repression in the West Bank, the humanitarian needs amongst the Palestinians are overwhelming and many of us are also responding to requests for aid.
If you have any questions about initiating your standing order, please be in touch with Malcolm on info@icahduk.org . Your continued support will allow us to push our political work forward so that Palestine is liberated and the need for emergency aid is no longer required.
Thank you.
