Organising your own fundraising event for CCM will be busy, challenging, exciting, rewarding, fulfilling...
...but it will help us continue to make a difference in the lives of those we support. We have posters, leaflets, invitations and some top tips to help your event go well. If you already have a great idea, please get in touch but if you are still wondering what to do, here are some ideas to get you started: |
| |
|
- Clothes Swap
- have you and your friends a wardrobe packed with clothes and still got nothing to wear? Everything too small or too big or are you simply just bored? Get together with family, friends and colleagues and bring all your clothes that you are no longer wearing. Have a great evening trying on each others clothes and swapping your wardrobes around. Make a donation to CCM for every new item you go home with. Don't forget to bring the clothes that nobody wants to the Charity Shop!

- Auction of Promises
Gather together Promises from family, friends, colleagues and business, for example I promise to clean your car, or babysit for 5 hours, or a day of pampering from the local beauty salon, and then simply auction them off. This works really well when combined with another event eg a gala dinner.
- Coffee Morning
or afternoon tea party or even a dinner party, safari supper or progressive meal!
- Non-Uniform Day
An all-time favourite for school children. Maybe you could get your teachers to dress in your uniform just for a change (and a laugh!). If you are too grown up for school, organise a dress down day at the office and make people pay for the priviledge.
- Family Fun Day
If you've got the space, organise a fun day for colleagues, neighbours, family and friends. You could have a simple barbecue and garden games or go a little bit more elaborate with a bouncy castle, face painting, competitions, treasure hunts. The only limitations are your imagination.
- Sales
A garage sale from your own home, a bring and buy sale in your local church hall, a car boot sale, a cake sale, a hand-made card sale...the options are endless.
- Collection Boxes
A collection box can be any container you choose it to be. Did you know a Smartie tube holds £** worth of 20p pieces (and you get to eat the Smarties first!)? Buy all your friends a tube of Smarties on the condition that they give you the tube back full of 20p's. You could go round your colleagues on a Friday and ask them to donate all their loose change to your collection box, whether that's an old coffee jar or giant water bottle!
