Fundraising can be daunting and challenging at times...
...HAVE NO FEAR, THE IDEAS ARE HERE!
• Make a funky donation box, with a description of what you’re doing and why! Put it in communal spaces or
reception (with consent of course...)
• Bike mechanic buddy? Bring them along to do lunch time bike fixing for a donation
• Kick it old school and have a cake sale! Everyone loves cakes, rally a few keen bakers together, sell em’ throughout the day and booooom money raised!
• Have a raffle at work, the prizes could be from other people at work or friends, you’d be surprised what people have and are willing to offer!

• Work or volunteer with local community groups? Together you could hold an event, day event, party, stall at a fair have a BIG dinner party open to the public!
• Part of a class? Collaborate with your yoga, tennis, ultimate frisbee, pilates teachers to have a fundraising session
• Contacting local bike shops asking if their mechanics would be up for a DIY bike fixing session to raise money
• Cluttered house? Have a carboot sale with a sign saying where the proceeds going, spring clean fundraising! Two birds, one stone…

• Auction of promises! (sounds fancy right?) Create a list of things you can offer in exchange for a donation! Either a a skill/trade you have to offer or house hold things like cleaning thier kitchen or house, weeding, offer to babysit, help with shopping, cooking them a meal.
• Dinner parties! Choose a date and location, invite your friends cook a banging meal for a set price or donation, gives you a chance to chat about the cause and have fun!
• Raffles...rally together people you know with ‘prizes’ from their resources. Hairdresser - ask for a haircut for the raffle! Artist - a print or painting etc. Everyone buys a ticket for a donation or set amount...you could even integrate this into a dinner party evening
• Parks! Big free spaces, have an organised game of rounders, frisbee, football and ask for donations.
• Have a party! Ask for a donation on the door or in advance, explain the cause, have a dance. Buy cheap booze so you can sell
fancy-looking cocktails, you get the idea! Combine with a raffle for maximum money-gathering!
