Give as you pay - CAFOD credit card

Every time you use a CAFOD credit card, you support our work to help people rise out of poverty

CAFOD is proud to introduce a credit card, in association with The Co-operative Bank, the only UK high street bank with a strict Ethical Policy.

Switching from your existing credit card need not cost you any extra** yet will raise much-needed funds as The Co-operative Bank will give CAFOD:

• £15 as soon as you open your account
• a further £2.50 if the card is used within six months
• 25p for every £100 you spend or transfer* from your existing cards to your new CAFOD card

Far more than a way to pay

The money that The Co-operative Bank gives us will support a huge variety of projects working with our partners throughout the developing world. Here are just a few examples:

• £15 could help to educate a child who has been orphaned by AIDS
• £2.50 could pay for seeds to plant a field of beans to provide a living for a family in East Timor
• Even 25p makes a difference – in fact every single penny raised by the CAFOD credit cards can help someone take their first steps out of poverty towards a brighter future

Responsible spending

CAFOD is aware that debt is a very real issue and as a responsible organisation, we do not want anyone to take on spending that they can’t afford. But if you already use a credit card, we hope you will consider switching to a new CAFOD credit card instead.

To find out more about interest rates and terms and conditions, simply call the Co-operative Bank on 0800 002 006, quoting reference 56228, and apply for a credit card you can be proud to carry.
