Easy earners
Whether you run these as well as or instead of a full-blown event, here are a few fundraising ideas that will ensure a guaranteed source of income for very little effort!
Successful cake sales
Bake sales, cake stalls, or afternoon teas are popular fundraising activities, that require very little planning, but how can you make them a success?
Cake poems
Cake sales are quick and easy to run, and generate even more profit when the treats are donated! Pick a poem to encourage donations.
Recycling
One person's waste is another person's wealth. So what recycling schemes will help your organisation fundraise?
Cookbook
A recipe book fundraiser is a great way to share mealtime ideas, to promote healthy eating and raise the profile of your charity.
Earn as you shop
When your supporters shop online, you could be earning commission – sign up to an affiliate shopping scheme, then spread the word!
Football cards
Charity football scratch cards are cheap to buy, offer a quick turnaround with great fundraising potential.
Jail 'em and Bail 'em
Jail 'em and Bail 'em - incarcerate your volunteers in a homemade 'jail' and make colleagues and visitors donate cash to 'bail' them out!
Onesie day
There's something deliciously naughty about leaving the house in your nightwear! Ask supporters to pay for the privilege of wearing their onesie and cash in!
Pennies in bottles
Give your supporters a plastic bottle and ask them to fill it with coins - fundraising schemes don't come much easier than this!
