ways to raise money for CHILDREN 1^ST

become a volunteer

There are many ways to raise money for CHILDREN 1^ST - You're limited only by your imagination. Here are a few great ideas ...

at work: ask your work to match £1 for every £1 you raise

find out people's talents and auction their time

ask local grocers for contributions of ingredients, have a cook-up at work and sell the results!

ask for prizes and sell as many tickets as you can (please check raffle regulations with CHILDREN 1^ST)

ask someone with a holiday house if they'll donate it for a weekend and auction away! Encourage groups of friends to pool their bids.

at home

ask for donations instead of presents for your birthday or wedding

invite your friends to dinner for a donation of £5 or £10 each

and serve drinks for a donation to the charity

in your house

at play

with all profits to CHILDREN 1^ST.

with prizes for a raffle or auction.

charge teams an entry fee.

sell tickets, wear national costumes, have a sweepstake and sample food and drink from different countries

go with friends, collecting donations on the way

invite neighbours, friends and family to take part

at large

at your local golf course

get sponsored to test your courage

or several...!
