Our mission statement
Good Green Fun aims to reduce the amount of waste going to landfill in the Forth Valley area every year by providing the means to reuse and recycle second hand children’s items such as toys, clothes, books, buggies and cots. These items are sold at affordable prices through an outlet in central Stirling, giving, for example, lower income families the opportunity to better support their children’s development and also enabling other families to help the environment by reducing wastage of resources.
Our not-for-profit status - supporting children's charities
We are a Community Interest Company, which is a social enterprise established for community purposes. All assets and profits are protected so they can only be given to other CICs or charities. We have no shareholders, and although directors may take a wage they do not own the organisation or benefit from any of our profits. Click here for more information about CICs. If you have any questions about our status or the way we are run please get in touch as we are happy to answer any questions about it.
Most of our profits will be donated to children’s charities, and the rest will go back into the business to help it develop. Although we have been running for over year, we have not yet made any profit as it is costly to set up a new organisation and takes time for word to spread about us. We hope to be in a position soon where we can start donating to charities, so please give us your suggestions on charities to support. Some of the charities that have been suggested by schools and the public are: CHAS, Aberlour, Dunblane Centre, GIFTS, CICRA, and Children 1st.
