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
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 a 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, Dunblane Centre, GIFTS, CICRA, and Children 1st.
Grants received for start-up
We are very grateful to the Scottish Executive INCREASE Programme, SEPA and Business Gateway for providing us with start-up funding.
