Fundraising ideas
Whether you’re aiming big or small, fundraising can be fun as well as rewarding. You can support TYAC either on your own or as part of a team, at work or in your free time. There are plenty of ways to get involved, and, however you choose to support us we’ll be here every step of the way to offer advice, support and materials to help your fundraising event go spectacularly!
At home or in your community
From asking friends and family to donate money instead of birthday or anniversary gifts, to a coffee morning or pamper party, there are plenty of ways to get together with family and friends, have some fun and support TYAC.
At school
From lunchtime cake sales to non-uniform days, there are lots of ways your school can get involved and raise funds for TYAC.
At work
You could have a dress down day, an office tournament or competition, or sale. There are many ways your company can support TYAC, including ‘chosen charity’ schemes, payroll giving and sponsorship. Please get in touch to find out more – we’d love to hear from you.
Get sponsored
There are lots of sponsored events you could organise, such as a walk, cycle or swim, a head shave… and many more. The possibilities are endless, and we can provide information and support. Just get in touch to find out more.
Take on a challenge
We have guaranteed charity places in some major events, such as the London Marathon, and through our partners there are opportunities across the country, from running to cycling as well as skydiving and UK and international challenges.
