Help Change Young Lives

Take a look at our fun and easy fundraising ideas. You can make a huge difference just by getting your friends together.

Anything can become a fundraising event, and if you are stuck for an idea, take a look at a few suggestions below:

• Cut off your ponytail

• Wax or Shave it off

• Quit or give something up

• Challenge someone else to do something

• Hold a morning coffee or afternoon tea party

• Organize a sporting event, get competitive or active!

• Celebrate a birthday or special event with donations in lieu of gifts

Planning an Event is Simple

Holding a fundraising Event is as easy as 1, 2, 3

1. Pick a date - whatever works for you and your friends

2. Choose your event - you can hold your event at home, work or school. Have a get-together with friends, neighbours and colleagues

Once you have decided on your event and date download and complete an Event Application Form and begin the Registration process.

3. Send invitations - the internet makes it easy - email, Facebook or send traditional invites. Put up posters to remind people the event is coming and let everyone know it is for a very important cause. Use email, intranet, posters, press releases, local radio to generate interest and sponsorship
