Why not organise your own event to raise money for Crisis, either with friends, family, or through your community group, choir or gym?
To help get you started, call 020 7426 3853 or fill out our online form to request a copy of our Fundraising Pack which is full of inspiration. There are also some more ideas below. Just remember - the only limit is your imagination, and every penny you raise will help Crisis support a homeless person in the rebuilding of their life.
Take a look here at what some of our supporters get up to!
. . . and ask people if they will sponsor you to do it! Visit the Guiness Book of Records website www.guinnessworldrecords.com and either go for a new record, or think of a wacky idea that hasn’t been done before!
Hold a special Christmas dinner for friends or family, either before or after Christmas. Ask everyone to make a donation (say, £10) in return for your culinary skills. You can pull a cracker for Crisis at home or at work!
Do you know any celebs who might offer a signed t-shirt, or companies willing to donate prizes for a charity auction night for your friends and family? Or go for the “auction of promises” route, where donors offer their own time and expertise.
There are sports events taking place throughout the year, from half-marathons to cycle rides. There’s sure to be one near you – sign up and raise money for Crisis at the same time!
Hold a fancy dress evening at the local bar or pub and ask everyone to make a donation to attend. For example, why not ask people to dress up as a London Underground station?
