A-Z Fundraising Ideas

Check out some ideas below or feel free to invent your own fundraising activity!

Our top 5 ideas for fundraising are:

  1. Bake sale– who doesn’t love cake?! Bake sales are a great way to fundraise, especially in your school/club/faith group etc
  2. Green & Purple Day– ask your school for permission for everyone to wear the RMBF colours for a day
  3. Challenge event– fancy a sponsored run/walk/cycle/row/rollerblade? These are a great way to stay fit & healthy whilst making a difference
  4. Hospital Hop– a medically themed fundraiser- pick a route between Hospitals and ask for sponsors!
  5. Book/book mark sale– ask your school for permission, and your friends to donate books, or create bookmarks to sell
