Fundraising Ideas

A fantastic way of supporting Stray Aid is hold your own fundraising event. Not only will this help to raise the much needed funds we need to support hundreds of dogs and cats each year, but it will also help to raise the profile of the charity amongst your family, friends, co-workers, or anyone else who sees you are raising money for a local charity. This means that more people are likely to donate or engage with us in the future. Our running costs are around £1,000 each day – so any amount, no matter how small, makes a difference.

Remember the ‘Fun’ in fundraising!

One of the most important parts of any fundraising is that you and everyone involved has FUN – so be creative!
