How can voluntary groups use LETSystems?
Because LETSystem money is easier to earn, it’s also easier to give away. Voluntary associations which accept donations in local (LETSystem) money can use it to reward volunteers and to pay for essential services without using up their cash budget. Donations to charities in local money can be offset against tax in the usual way. This provides further opportunities for fund-raising. Voluntary associations may also use LETS directories to obtain more services and to gain a higher public profile.
