Tap into your talents or be inspired by ideas that complement your lifestyle – you can raise money and have fun at the same time. Here are some ideas inspired by our fundraisers, people just like you.
Sponsored activities
Can you keep quiet for an entire day, walk to work instead of your usual commute, or take part in a sporting event? Try and get your family involved too and raise as much money as you can!
Bake Sale
Get mixing and decorating! Bake sales are not only a great way to raise money but can be an amazing way to socialise in your school, office or community.
Party Party Party!
Why not use a future celebration as an opportunity to raise money by selling tickets or simply ask for a donation as a gift.
Clothes Swap
Help the environment and raise money by organising a clothes swap with friends, community, or colleagues. Ask people to make a donation to bring along clothes and take home some pre-loved clobber. And what’s more, you’ll be helping the planet at the same time by recycling clothes! It’s a win-win situation!
Raffle
You could ask friends, family or local businesses to donate raffle prizes and then organise an event where people can buy tickets to win them. Be creative! For instance, you could ask your employer to donate a day’s worth of annual leave! Or keep it traditional, and ask for things like vouchers, clothes, hampers and activity packages. (Guidance on organising raffles is available )
Other ideas include:
- Office Treasure hunt
- Sports tournaments
- Office learning lunches
- Quiz night
Match it!
Try to stretch your fundraising amount by politely asking your employer or a kind sponsor to match fund what you raise, and you can double your donation.
