When you register, ActionAid provide you with a fundraising pack full of ideas, and we are always on hand to provide you with full support and regular newsletters to help you along the way. Here are just a few ideas to spark your imagination:

• Sell your unwanted items and raise funds with an auction, car boot sale or on eBay
• Raise funds online at myactionaid.org.uk and watch the donations come rolling in
• Celebrate seasonal festivities: hold a Halloween party, pancake race, Easter egg hunt or Valentine's speed dating night
• Involve your contacts - ask a local school to hold a non uniform day or have a dress down day at work
• Swap your birthday or Christmas presents for sponsorship
• Hold a quiz or band night in your local pub or community centre

Don't take our word for it, read what our fundraisers did to raise their sponsorship:

"The number one rule is 'if you don't ask you don't get'. It might feel awkward at first but people are often more than happy to donate to charity and support you, especially when you tell them about ActionAid's work." Anna Carbon, Kilimanjaro trek

"I organised an Elvis night! Over 120 people bought tickets and we also had a raffle. It was a great evening with the King in great form, and we raised nearly £1200!" David Burns, Peru trek

Fundraising can be FUN and we would love to welcome you onto the team. Your fundraising will help us to change lives, for better for good, so join us today!
