Fundraising
Are you wanting to raise money to support the Northern National Restoration Group, but don’t know where to start? Whether you are a first-timer or a regular fundraiser, everybody needs a little inspiration sometimes.
Do not worry we are on hand to help you decide on a fundraising idea.
Auction / Auction of promises - Do you have a well-stocked record collection you're willing to let go of for a good cause? Or the contacts to get your hands on some sought bus collection memorabilia? Then an auction could be a charity fundraising activity for you. You could even make your auction a more casual affair by auctioning off your skillset. Could an evening of waiting for your friends help you raise funds?
Bake sale - Bake your way to fundraising success. Whether you run the event at work, school or your home be sure to find out about any specialist diets (or perhaps just favourites) first to maximise sales!
Beard shaving - Would the idea of you shave your beard off for the NNRG? Why not dye it too before the big shave to raise extra funds for charity?
Coffee mornings - Most people rely on a coffee to get them through the day so hosting a coffee morning is a great way to fundraise. (Gathering donations is much easier when you're offering something people want anyway!)
Give it up! - We all have bad habits, some worse than others! If you have a habit you want to kick, why not do it while fundraising for the NNRG? You could give up many things including crisps, television, alcohol, chocolate, meat and smoking.
Head shave - Make sure your bold move gets the recognition it deserves by offering people the chance to bid to shave your head. Or stretch out the activity by giving people the chance to dye your hair a crazy colour for a week before the shave.
Name the … - Name the teddy, bunny, or bear. Whatever it is you choose, tap into people's competitive nature with a simple guessing game.
Raffle - A raffle is great to have at a charity fundraising event. Just charge a fee for tickets and the winner gets a prize.
Running - No organised event, just you and your challenge. Get your friends to sponsor you to run around the block for the NNRG.
Walk - Where and how far will you walk to help the NNRG? If you want to head to your local shopping centre in your onesie or make your way from John O'Groats to Lands' End, walk with purpose and become an NNRG fundraiser today.
