Fundraising Ideas
Whether you’re an individual looking to make a personal contribution, a group of friends wanting to team up for a cause, or a business aiming to give back, there are countless fun and meaningful ways to get involved.
This page is packed with inspiring ideas and practical tips to help you turn your passion into action. From simple at-home activities to larger events, every initiative—big or small—brings us one step closer to making a real difference. Let’s explore how you can make your fundraising journey creative, engaging, and impactful!
Get Active
Organise your own cycle ride, run, walk, swim, or skydive! Why not include a sweepstake for your donors to feel more involved in your challenge.
Read more about how you can get involved in Challenge Events with #TeamTavs.
Celebrate Special Occasions
Ask for donations to the Tavs for your birthday instead of presents or let your guests know that you’re supporting us on your big day instead of buying wedding favours. Let us celebrate with you!
Sponsored Challenges
Task yourself with doing something unique for 24 hours, a week, month or even a year! How long can you stay silent, give something up or push yourself to do?
Be Social
Bring together your friends, family, neighbours, school or university and host a quiz, games night, auction, bake sale, dinner party, festival, or how about a movie-athon!
