Ideas to Fundraise

is really all about having fun whilst also helping those less fortunate around the world. You may already have an idea and just need some resources from us, or perhaps you really want to do something worthwhile but don’t know where to start. Well here we have lots of fun and creative ideas along with helpful information to get you well on your way. Ideas to Fundraise

Auction: Such a simple way to fundraise, auction various items on social media. It could be items you already have at home and no longer want/need or you could ask a local business to donate items for your auction.

Bake Sale: A true classic. How about adding a theme to your fundraiser depending on the cause you’re raising for? E.g. a blue theme if you’re fundraising to provide clean water. Or you could really go for it, sell other homemade delights alongside your delicious baked goods like milkshakes, smoothies or classic desserts (trifle, cake & custard etc.).

Car Wash: Probably the most fun thing you could do in the summer and all you need is water, a bucket, a sponge and some car shampoo. You could do this at your school or workplace, or you could even ask a local business to let you use their grounds/car park.

Car Boot Sale: Just like the charity car wash, you just need to find a good location, and ask lots of people bring a boot full of goodies and/or items they no longer need. Each person pays a fixed fee to be allowed to sell at your car boot sale.

Competitive Event: Organise a paintballing or go-karting event, you could make it a competition between individuals, or something for teams? Add a little on top of the cost price to donate to your chosen cause. Or perhaps you can ask for a reduced charity rate when organising the event?

Dress Blue Day: At Islamic Relief we definitely LOVE blue! How about having a ‘dress blue day’ at your school or workplace? Everyone wears one blue item of clothing and donates a fixed amount to your chosen cause.
