Fundraising ideas
Holding a charity auction for example is a great fundraising idea. Ask local businesses, friends and family to donate prizes which will be bid for on the auction night. Prizes can include items such as fruit baskets and perfumes but might also be services like a free make-over, a free day trip or a free photography session. Find out what people have to offer and explain to them how much this experience will mean to you. All you need to do then is invite people to your auction and get them bidding on all the free goodies you’ve collected.
Physical fundraising ideas
Another fundraising idea is to do some sponsored activities to show your commitment to your expedition. For example you might choose to hike across the Pennines, or walk the Thames Path to demonstrate that this is something that means a lot to you and at the same time raise some money for your expeditions. People will no doubt be impressed by your dedication and will hopefully reward this with copious amounts of sponsorship!
Creative fundraising ideas
Holding coffee mornings, selling your own crafts, or organising a raffle with donated prizes are all very good ideas too. If you have a particular talent then sell it to people, making it clear that all the money you get will be going towards your expedition fund. The main aim is to get creative about it and show your friends and family just how much this experience will mean to you. For more fundraising ideas, start talking to people you know and getting their opinions on how you can make your expedition dream a reality.
Fundraising is the chance to get creative about raising the money for your expedition. Traditionally people would just ask for sponsorship from friends and family but there are much better (and much more fun) ways to raise the money you need successfully.
