A charity label is a label resembling a postage stamp, sold by charities to raise funds.〔Mackay, James. ''Philatelic Terms Illustrated'', 4th edition, Stanley Gibbons, London, 2003, p.25. ISBN 0-85259-557-3〕 They are generally intended to be used on mail, as a way of advertising the sender's support of the charity's cause. Christmas Seals and Easter Seals are perhaps the two best-known types, although many kinds have been made. While designed to look like postage stamps, they only rarely include a denomination, and never the name of a country. They are distinct from charity stamps which also include a charge for postage. Charity labels are one of several kinds of cinderella stamp.
