Fundraising Hints

Set your goals - be realistic!

  • Contact the Community & Events Team
  •  Allow plenty of time to plan and prepare
  • Enlist some help or set up a committee
  •  Work out a time schedule and set task dates

Watch the bottom line!

  • Try to aim for at least a 3:1 ratio (three parts income to one part expense)
  • Keep expenditure down by getting things donated or sponsored
  • Increase your income - raffles, auctions, etc
  • Always have two people to count the money at your event

Let people know about it!

  • Good publicity helps to raise more funds
  • Contact local newspapers, radio and local TV
  • Send out information at least a week before your event
  • Take photographs on the day and send them to the local media

Ask us!
