I could become the queen of fundraising ideas!

I've been trying to come up with a bit of a list of ways to raise some money for my marathon charity.

So far I have planned:
  • A couple of photographic competitions for my clients
  • A photograph competition for my local camera club
  • A cake stall
  • A wine tasting evening
  • Creating a hard hitting slide show with images to go with an email asking for direct donations to my Just Giving Page.
  • Getting my mum to have a cake stall or coffee morning and having a sponsor form!
  • Organising some kind of activity at my son's school.
  • Placing a £1 in a pot every time I run a mile during my training.
  • Matching any donations made by my clients out of my business.
And yet it all still seems a bit scary!

I've been struggling to think of some way my son could get involved, and I just found these two idea that sound quite fun, that I'm sure he would love to help me with:
Welly throwing competition

As it stands, I'm about 7% of the way towards my goal of £2000 on my just giving page! http://www.justgiving.com/Charlotte-Bellamy2

Feel free to donate! LOL

  2. Jill, probably a cookie sale or sweet treats? I will have sponge cakes, cookies and maybe muffins for sale. Does that answer your query!!
