Employee fundraising
Fundraising at work is about having a bit of fun in the office, with the reward of knowing you could save someone's sight in the developing world.
It's not just a great way to build team spirit and improve morale but also allows your employees to help make a difference - with the support of their employer. Often companies will match any money raised through staff fundraising activities, so check with your HR or Community Team whether they do.
You could hold a collection or organise a sponsored event, have a dress down day, hold a cake raffle, whatever you'd like. The big earners are quite often the simplest of ideas! If you're holding a cake sale these specially designed Sightsavers muffins are sure to be a real success, and taste great to!
Sightsavers is an incredibly emotive cause to fundraise for, as every £17 raised could save someone's sight in the developing world. So do bear us in mind should you have a Charity of the Year programme.
We're also here to support you, so if you've got the energy but are stuck for ideas, please get in touch and we'll be happy to assist. We have a selection of fundraising materials that could help interest your colleagues, so just ask!
