Others include Bristol Autism Support, Winston’s Wish, the Royal National Lifeboat Institution in Portishead, and Marie Curie in Bristol.
None of the donations has any indication of who or where the money has come from.
But the handwriting on this latest envelope received at the end of June is similar to one received by the RNLI earlier in the month.
Andrew Hufford, CEO of Penny Brohn UK, told What’s The Jam: “This donation was completely unexpected and we would like to thank whoever sent it in for their generosity.
