How can I boost my fundraising total?

There are many, many things you can do – online auctions, quiz nights, five aside football tournaments, golf days, dress down days, car washing – these are some of the more popular ways in which teams raise their fundraising total.

Ask your suppliers, clients, customers, and your own personal network of contacts. The following website, www.justgiving.com/carechallenge, is an easy and effective way to tell everyone about what you’re doing, and gives them opportunity to sponsor you on-line.

Remember that if you’re a UK taxpayer Gift Aid can add an extra 28.2% to the value of your funds raised - please contact us for more details (as Gift Aid is a tax concession from the government it is not counted it in your fundraising total).

Contact your local press – newspapers, newsletters and websites – with details of what your company is doing. This can help raise the profile of your fundraising and increase your potential.

Contact our Fundraising Manager, Michele Evans for more ideas.
