Community events

Two Sense International supporters look happy in their orange wigsCommunity events are an opportunity for you to hold your own event, big or small, to raise funds for Sense International. Practically anything can be turned into a fundraiser — the only limit is your imagination.

Consider:

  • Holding a BBQ or dinner party using donated or discounted food and getting people to pay a premium for their meal.
  • Encouraging your child’s school to have a dress down day with every child making a £1 donation for the privilege.
  • Getting sponsored to shave your head.
  • Getting your friends to donate items for a car boot sale.
  • Organising a quiz night at a local pub and getting friends and colleagues to support you.

Don't hesitate to contact us with your ideas or to request some resources to make your fundraising easier. We will always be on hand to offer you any assistance or fundraising support you may need to make your event a success.  

Can't come up with an idea right now? Why not take part in The Great British Duck Race! On 31 August 2008, thousands of plastic ducks will be thrown into the Thames to compete in what organisers hope will become the biggest ever duck race.  By adopting a duck for as little as £2, you can make a donation to Sense International, get the chance to win up to £10,000 and be part of a Guiness Book of Records record breaking attempt. Click here to adopt a duck today!
