Fundraise for a special occasion
Start a fundraising page for your birthday, your wedding or in honor of someone.
Feel blessed. Celebrate or commemorate a special moment in your life by starting your very own fundraising page. With the power of your community, you can help send lifesaving aid to people in crisis, and give others in need the support they need to build a better world.
Donate your birthday
Host a fundraising event
Fundraise by hosting a dinner party, bake sale or other event in your own community.
Below are just some of the ideas you can use for planning a fundraising event. Just remember, you know best what works for your community.
Fundraise at school, college or university
Young people are great fundraisers. As children, adolescents and young adults learn about humanitarian work and how it’s funded by donations, they also learn about self-respect, how to ask for help and show gratitude. Consider involving your young ones with a few of these ideas, or work with their teachers, the PTA or school administration to get everyone in on the fun.
