Donation requests

Newport Live is asked to support hundreds of worthwhile charitable causes and events each year. We make every effort to accommodate as many requests as possible. However, as a charitable trust ourselves and due to the number of requests we receive, we are simply unable to accommodate all requests. 

 

In order for your organisation to be considered for a donation item, you must comply with the following guidelines:

• All donation requests must be submitted through the Newport Live Donation Request Form. 
• The donation request form must be filled out completely in order for your request to be considered.
• Your organisation must be located within a 20-mile radius of the city of Newport.
• Your organisation cannot have received a donation from Newport Live during the current financial year, April to March. Any organisation is only eligible to receive one donation item per financial year.
• Your request must be submitted via the Newport Live Donation Request Form at least six weeks prior to the date your organisation needs the donation.
• Your non-profit organisation must have a tax exempt status. You must enter your organisation's valid tax exempt ID number on the online form in order for your request to be considered. (If you are a business sponsoring a charitable event, please ask a member of the charity to complete the donation request form).

Please note that by submitting a request does not guarantee your organisation will receive a donation and as such It is recommended that your event not be centred on the anticipation of receiving a donation item. Rather, Newport Live donation item should be a complimentary element to your event.

Donation items are typically sent two weeks prior to the date your organisation needs the item.

Thank you for considering Newport Live as a contributor. We wish you the best of luck with your charitable and fundraising efforts.
