Fundraising ideas
You’ll need to decide what to do and where to do it, but here are some ideas to get you started:
- Spring: boat race, swap shop, unwanted pressie sale, variety show, yoga class.
- Summer: BBQ party, car wash, head shave, teddy bears’ picnic, open garden, swimathon.
- Autumn: battle of the bands, comedy night, indoor games night, talent competition.
- Winter: mulled wine and cheese evening, knitting competition, quiz nights, afternoon tea.
Being organised is the key to a successful and happy fundraising activity, and your plan should cover:
- the activity
- raising the money
- timing and audience
- venue and weather
- budget publicity, the ‘big day’ and publicity materials.
Remember to be legal and be safe. Make sure you’re covered. There are laws that govern all charity fundraising activities.
