The best thing was finding after all the fundraising, and reaching my target, my boss told me the company would match it. Doubling my donation to Rainer!

Top Tips for Fundraising
 |
This page includes our top tips to begin fundraising. Don’t forget that we will help you along the way with merchandise to sell, a fundraising information hotline and plenty of advice. Call us on 020 7336 4808 for more ideas.
-
Order our fundraising pack to ensure you have everything you need to support Rainer.
-
Organise an event you would want to attend – this sounds obvious but that way you will be able to add touches you know guests will appreciate, and will enjoy organising your fundraiser.
-
Create a timeline for your fundraising: when you will send invitations or sponsorship emails, ask for raffle prizes, book suppliers and any other important things to remember.
-
Recruit some friends, to help on the day and with the preparation. They can approach their own friends and contacts to sell tickets, get raffle prizes and promote the event.
-
Many businesses have a charitable budget, so ask your employer if the company will contribute to your fundraising efforts or will match the money you raise. We will happily recognise their support with a letter of thanks.
-
Ask local shops and restaurants to donate vouchers or a gift and hold a raffle for your guests. Be sure to thank them on the day and include there logo in any printed materials.
-
Before you pay for anything ask the supplier or venue whether they will donate it for free or with a charity discount. The more you can tell them about the charity the better, so make sure you have as much information about Rainer as you can.
-
Keep in touch with us, we can offer you ongoing support, a speaker for the event (1 months notice needed) and t-shirts, collection boxes and support. We love hearing all about your events, and seeing pictures, so please call us on 020 7336 4808 when considering your fundraising.
