Fundraising
We are very blessed to have had so much support since the charity was founded in 2012 but it’s essential that we keep the momentum going as there are so many children and families that need our help.
If you’re undertaking a challenge, organising a event, hosting a virtual birthday fundraiser or have more ideas we’d love for you to get involved!
Ways to Fundraise Online:
You can set up an online fundraising account quickly and easily – this means your supporters, friends and family can give to your fundraising page electronically and also gift aid their donation with just a few clicks.
Facebook – This is a great way to raise birthdays, anniversaries and memorials
Some companies offer match funding for their employees fundraising activities so we’d encourage you to look into this as it could make a huge difference to your efforts. Here is a list of companies that offer match funding (as at 2017).
We truly appreciate every penny and pound raised and donated and we promise to spend it wisely. If you have any questions or need help to set up an online fundraising page please give us a call.
Please call us on 01457 680023 or email enquiries@reubensretreat.org and let us know what you are planning and we’ll provide all the support we can. Please also visit our Resources page for a copy of our Fundraising Kit Bag.
For large events we can offer bespoke marketing support so please do get in touch for more information.
