Our favourite fundraising ideas

We know that the worst kind of fun is organised fun, so be sure to think up some unique activities for your colleagues to enjoy. The more wacky the better!

1.

Formal fridays

You’ve heard of dress-down Fridays, but why not encourage your colleagues to come dressed in their most extravagant outfits in exchange for a donation. We’re thinking wedding dresses, tuxedos, your nan’s favourite nightgown… go as far as your creativity (and HR) will allow.

2.

Auctioning

Auction off some work related prizes like lunch with the CEO, job swap, extra days off, first pick of the hot desks, some new stationery etc.

3.

Bake off!

Donate to compete and see if the next Mary Berry is amongst you. Even if you don’t win, you’ll have sweet treats to enjoy all week. 

4.

Take on a physical challenge together

There is no better team building than trudging through mud together in a Tough Mudder race, or discovering some beautiful scenery on a countryside hike. Or perhaps you’re more of a competitive team and want to see who can achieve the most steps in a month?

5.

Spelling bee

Do your team always struggle with typos? Perhaps host a team spelling bee where you donate to nominate someone a specific word or donate to skip a tricky one.

Other ways to donate

Matched funding 

Many employers offer matched funding, doubling the impact you can have by fundraising for CoppaFeel! with no extra effort needed from yourselves! For example Barclays offer their staff the opportunity to match up to £750 they’ve raised per year. Be sure to check with HR if your company offers this.

Payroll giving

For anyone who does not want to take part in a wacky fundraising activity (or those looking for some extra warm and fuzzy feelings after your fundraiser is over), we recommend encouraging your colleagues to donate to CoppaFeel! directly from their pay cheque each month in a simple, tax-effective way.

Fundraising goodies

Give your fundraising an extra boost by ordering free fundraising goodies. They are great for encouraging your colleagues to get involved and support your fab fundraising efforts whilst also spreading key awareness messaging amongst your colleagues.
