New stretch target
If we raise more than our target this money will act as a running balance for AUOB as we enter the autumn and over the winter look forwards to strengthening AUOB and preparing for next year's immense 2020 National Campaign.
AUOB Edinburgh Fundraiser
by #AUOB in Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom
We did it
On 27th September 2019 we successfully raised £8,000 with 407 supporters in 14 days
Our aim is to raise funds to meet the costs of the All Under One Banner March and Rally for Independence at Edinburgh 5th October 2019.
AUOB EDINBURGH FUNDRAISER
By All Under One Banner (AUOB), and backed by the Scottish Independence Foundation (SIF)
AUOB EDINBURGH FUNDRAISER
As we fast approach the final All Under One Banner March of 2019 we are at a point where we need to launch a crowdfunding campaign to ensure we can meet AUOB Edinburgh's costs, a crowdfunding campaign which has received the official backing of SIF (Scottish Independence Foundation):
"The Scottish Independence Foundation regards the AUOB marches and rallies as very important in publicly demonstrating the strength of the Independence movement in a way that the media find difficult to ignore.
SIF is pleased to provide some of the funding to stage the 5th October event in Edinburgh." - Dr Willie Wilson, SIF Convener
This is good news for our Organisation as the last couple months have been financially challenging with AUOB team members having to self-fund to meet Marches & Rallies costs; from attending meetings across Scotland to equipment & hire etc costs. It has been challenging for us as an organisation to financially start again from scratch. As Individuals we managed to meet the costs of Aberdeen and Perth, however recently, and with no other solutions on the horizon, we looked forwards at Edinburgh and realised something had to be done, and so on we are delighted to launch this crowdfunder which is endorsed and backed by SIF- great support from the Scottish Independence Foundation, a fundraising campaign to ask the public to back us, so if you support Scottish Independence then please make a small donation so that we can finish the 2019 marching year in grand style.
Your donations will go to meeting the costs of what is likely to be the biggest and boldest demonstration for Independence in Scotland's history. Please see the Facebook event page link for the official March for Independence- Edinburgh event page:

Your financial support is vital to making this history happen, a history where the Scottish people rose up in sustained people power activity and kept Marching and demonstrating relentlessly until Independence was won.
Thankyou to everyone who makes a donation and should you have any questions about anything AUOB please don't hesitate to email us at:
